I can't tell you how useful this little phrase has been. Any time I'm
doing something that involves applying force, I take a second and ask
myself this question. If my chisel slips, where's it going to go? If I
have to let go, where's the piece of wood I'm cutting going to go? (Is
anyone else's table saw height right under their belt? Ain't no way I'm
standing in the line of fire!!!)

IF is the first question you should ask in any situation where you or
someone else's safety is involved.

If the tool slips........................
If the electricity goes off........................
If the house is on fire........................
If the car starts to slide........................
If an oncoming car comes across the center line........................
