相信你自己的力量

                                                                                                  

Bruce was my good friend. He liked drawing horses. He drew the horses very well, but he always began with the tail. I was surprised because I thought all people begin with the head of the horse. 
In fact, it could not really make any difference whether the painter begins with the head or the tail or the belly or the foot of the horse. Most great painters do not follow other people’s rule. They make their own rules. 
It is the same to writing. The question, “How shall I begin?” only means that you want to begin with the head instead of beginning with the tail or somewhere else. That is, you are not yet experienced enough to trust your own powers. When you become more experienced you will never ask the question.
