	For example, the project could fail to popularize any concepts—with nobody else ever adopting BASH nor any therapeutic modalities or animal-supportive architecture concepts—but if [[Haven House]] and [[Cloud Nine Studios]] consistently provide housing to people who need it, that will make the project a worthwhile endeavor even if the ideas we attempt to share never travel a mile beyond where they were conceived.

	Likewise, everything else could fail, we could go bankrupt, and the two facilities we built could be sold at foreclosure and turned into generic student housing. However, if a single major concept became widely popularized, e.g., if [[Litter Closet\|litter closets]] became somewhat common, even if only in the DIY community, or if the [[~~Recovery~~ Pathway]] were to be validated as an effective therapeutic tool and used elsewhere, the value of societal good done would likely outweigh the amount individually invested, making the project a net positive for the world and able to be considered a success.<!--		Likewise, everything else could fail, we could go bankrupt, and the two facilities we built could be sold at foreclosure and turned into generic student housing.

	Finally, so far we have built two trauma recovery housing facilities for women, which are in high demand and short supply. In addition to maintaining these buildings, we are working to maximize their impact by coordinating with women’s supportive organizations that are in a position to put these facilities to their best use.

	Such a scenario would completely achieve several of our primary goals—and here’s a [[Plan to Promote ~~Pet~~-~~Friendly Housing~~\|plan]] to make that happen—but should that plan fall short of perfection, hundreds of lesser possibilities in which these objectives are only partially realized could still be considered successful.

However, the stakes for society are so high that merely recognizing such a possibility makes us ethically bound to try to make them happen, as the stars have been known to occasionally align in our favor, and landing among them after shooting for the moon still accomplishes a lot of good.
