The Awakenet: What is a Myth? Does it help or hinder?

This again based on what is happening this year. For so long, the Mayan calendar has been an integral part of how so many people anticipate the world. So it occurred to me, is that a myth or fact? What are some myths that people have, or is it a fact? What makes up a myth? I think much of this is around your belief, so how much influence can that have on you? I think this should be fun!
