  3. Showing that you are ready to use it is a confirmation of conviction -- but like a Samurai if you pull it out without bloodying it -- you have a problem -- remember like the kid who cried wolf. And guts are great when you have substance to back them up -- and that is my point -- if you have the back-up -- go for it
