Everything's a myth. Myths are just the stories we tell ourselves to try to make sense of things.
I think there's a difference between personal myths, which can be very helpful as a way to provide structure if one needs it, and those that become 'common wisdom' and often devolve into dogma - they usually have a fairly sensible purpose that's gotten lost in tradition.
I think 'do what works for you' is a pretty good myth, as long as what your're doing actually is working for you and isn't limiting you.
If you feel confined by the myths you live by, try stepping beyond them and see if they hold up or if it's time to let them go.

I got a good laugh out of this thread. The sad thing is, most of my family members prattle off these fears legitimately!

I have some to add to Scion's list of dos and don'ts...
- Making the querent interpret their own cards is always better than reading them yourself.
- Empowering readings (the "what do I need to know about" kind) are better than divinatory readings.
- Phlegmatic and melancholic temperament types are natural born readers, sanguinic and choleric types will have a hard time becoming good readers.
- MY method is better than YOURS (insert any favourite message here).
- Variation of above: X's method is better than yours because he/she has a book out.

Some favorites are:
Reading tarot cards necessarily involves working with familiar spirits
The future is never set in stone
You should never read tarot after a couple of drinks
The best way to store your cards is a black silk cloth in a wooden box'
There are dying witches out there who are passing their haunted tarot decks to people to sell on Ebay
