Jay, that is an awesome story man. I’m really glad that it inspired you instead of disheartened you. The rabbithole is infinite… it just keeps going down, down, down…so what I tell everyone is just “Enjoy the journey!” It sounds cliche but I’m telling the truth when I say, there are times I wish I was a beginner again. So many people want to rush and become really good, but I made the most progress and was the most excited about my progress in the beginning, when I moved from “I don’t know if I can ever do that” to “I nailed it! Yes!” That happens so much more in the old days. 🙂

  Thanks Ke, and I agree with you 100% on the “Enjoy the journey” philosophy. Overcoming a challenge and finding the flow is one of the best feelings in the world.
