power, again

TO THE EXTENT THAT WE ARE ABLE TO INFLUENCE THE PEOPLE AROUND US*,

via beauty, wit, charm, persuasion, physical force, financial incentive, or what have you (aka, ‘resources’),

we shape our own universe.

Here it seems appropriate to quote Yoda, for some reason:
"There is no 'try'. There is only do, or do not."



*this is the ‘missing link’ absent from such tripe as ‘The Secret’ and whatnot (as in, ‘without this piece, the machine doesn’t fucking WORK’).
