Over the years, the motivational phrase, “How bad do you want it?” has changed in my mind to,“How willing are you to humble yourself and expose the depths of your ignorance?” While early results may initially be obtained by sheer desire, I believe that that approach will inevitably plateau. To keep progressing, we must look inward and dissolve conceptual blockages and biases that, most of the time, we wouldn’t even notice if we decided not to look.
The process is painful, but IMHO, the reward is BEYOND magnificent. 😉

Is it a cute shark I can pat at the aquarium or is it going to maul me and eat up all the pieces if I get in the water? By the way nice replies are not going to get rid of me. Try “Stop writing stupid things on my blog, idiot!” I might listen!

Nah, I’ve gone through the jerk-phase of my life; being nice is as much quality of life for me as for anybody else! 🙂

So does not mean that is what you’d say if you weren’t polite.

Nah if I wasn’t polite I’d just ignore, or make some snide elitist comment that would draw me into some stupid argument. Better uses of time and energy are out there! 🙂
