six rules of maybe

[dancing_crow]

from a book of the same name:

1. Respect the power of hope and possibilities. Begin with belief. Hold on to it.
2. If you know where you want to go, you're already half way there. Know what you desire but, more importantly, why you desire it. Then go.
3. Hopes and dreams and heart's desires require a clear path - get out of your own way.
4.  Place hope carefully in your own hands and in the hands of others.
5. Persist if necessary
6. That said, most importantly - know when you've reached an end. Stop, end, do it with courage (and grace if possible). Ending is not failing, it is a chance to start something new. 

So - useful? or pointless twaddle?
