Until one is committed, there is hesitancy,
a chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness.
Concerning all acts of initiative and creation,
there is one elementary truth,
the ignorance of which kills countless dreams and splendid plans.
That the moment one definitely commits oneself,
then Providence moves too.
I have learned a deep respect for one of Goethe's couplets:
"Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it.
Boldness has genius, power, and magic to it."
