Whenever i write (at least if i have developed my charecters as well as i should), i sometimes find myself thinking that a story will go one way, and then i find out that the charecter would not LET it end that way, or they would do something else that would result in another ending. I believe (and so does Stephen King in "On Writing, a Memoir of the Craft," a great book definately worth reading) that your characters should determine the direction that the story goes.
So i guess my tip would be, "Listen to your characters!"
