Me Too

Keep trying and you will get there, this seems reasonable.  Given that mastery takes 10 000 hours, the investment would appear to be worth while when the returns come in.  Yeah, I nod to this, acknowledge its validity, IF, not giving up is in the game plan.  No guts, no glory, nothing can be more true when it comes to slaying the monster of not me...not me wants you and I to believe that good things, health, wealth happiness belong magically to the other guy or girl.  Such a lie.  Watch the people who are successful, they are relentless in pursuit of excellence.  The cream of the crop, the top 20%, the producers, they are the ones to keep an eye on.  I don't mean pay them and expect it to rub off, I mean do what they do, follow the formula, integrate it and stop reinventing the wheel.  Beginners think they need to learn more before they master their craft, I say get in there and get dirty, make messy mistakes and take risks, boldly go where you have never gone before and then clean yourself up for the next round of learning until you get THERE, on the side of the line where the masters move and shape the world. They aren't  standing still waiting for people to catch them, they don't care about that, they have work to do, and so do we.  Not me is silly,  Me Too is more like it!
