I am part of the mixed method magical camp

Over on the Magical Lotus, there is a post about the three methods of magic (I would have called them "approaches"). I am definitely part of the Mixed Method camp---when someone from the the Magical Method or Mundane Method complains that what they are doing is not working, I tend to point out the fact that they have forgotten something valuable from the other camp (aka I think that the Mixed Method is best). Often my pointer will be "Get up off the sofa" or "Why do you keep thinking so hard about the possibility of failure?"---which one will depend on who I am dealing with at that particular second.
