How much of magic is simply denying the possibility of failure?

I'm downloading the "goods to follow" form that one needs when landing in Canada (stuff that you are not bringing with you at the moment, but importing later). The earliest I could possibly need this form is early next year, I think. The last time my parents queried (interrogated!) me about this whole production (and indeed, every time), they asked, "what if they don't accept you?"

I'm simply not allowing for that possibility.

The practical answer is that I simply wait and try again, unless circumstances change such that it becomes more intelligent to try to import enotsola rather than export myself. But that's not what I'm really thinking. What I'm really thinking is "that's a non-issue, because it won't happen. So there, Universe."

This is the same thinking that got me to WtT 2, over all obstacles (such as convincing a mother who didn't want me to drive 100 miles to see someone I'd never met suddenly thinking it was okay to fly 3,000 miles to see three dozen people I'd never met, "it'll be a learning experience"), to meet enotsola in the first place.

I *firmly* believe that the way I ended up with the awesome lifestyle I have is because I simply expected it and behaved as if it were already here.
