Default Emergency and Discipline

If you are faced with a full blown emergency such as an engine
failure, what are you going to do?
Open ended question to generate some more conversation and
discussions. In my more than 50 years of aviation, I've had at least
18 actual emergencies and survived them all. Only one resulted in
physical injury and that was more than 40 years ago.
It is disconcerting to read the modern aircraft manuals (civilian) and
see most of it relates to shutting down the engine/s and heading for a
landing area rather than dealing with the emergency and keeping the
aircraft flying if possible.
Anyone want to hazard a guess at the major number of engine failure
causes?
