Unless one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness.  Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one elementary truth (the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans).  That is the moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too.  All sorts of things occur to help one that would have never otherwise occurred.  A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one’s favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meeting and material assistance which no person could have dreamed would have come his way.  Whatever you do, or dream you can, begin it.  Boldness has genius, power, and magic to it.  Begin it now.  [PDF]
