Abstract
The course of one’s constructive behavior or career bears no mystical landmarks. Rather, it follows the lines of least resistance or easily accepted opportunity, directed in part by prejudice, preference, energy, good and bad advice, a strong element of lucky circumstance. A reasonably high effort: indolence ratio is usually important. These remarks introduce a very personal statement on an early phase of neuroendocrinological history.
