Until one is committed,

there is hesitancy,

the chance to draw back,

always ineffectiveness.

Concerning all acts of initiative

there is one elementary truth,

the ignorance of which kills

countless ideas and endless plans:

That the moment one definitely commits oneself,

then providence moves, too.

All sorts of things occur to help one

that would never otherwise have occurred.

A whole stream of events issues from the decision,

raising in one’s favor all manner of

unforeseen incidents and meetings and

material assistance which no man

could have dreamed would come his way.

Whatever you can do or

dream you can, begin it!

Boldness has genius, power,

and magic in it.

~ Goethe ~
