Another newcomer - already finding help

it's so hard to get where SP is because I think the PA makes it so much harder for a guy to get there...

Do you understand why it's harder to get there?

Coach,

Good question... I don't know that I do, but does it matter? I don't mean that in a "smart a$s" way, but in a way, as a good friend of mine likes to say: "It is what it is."

That is, circling back to and paraphrasing JKL's thoughts, does it really matter why it's harder to get there if you agree it is the "better place to be" and should be the "goal"?

From that perspective, isn't figuring out how to get the PA (some writers, I think Shirley Glass might have been the one, liken what the LBS of a WAS who has had a PA to post-traumatic stress) to keep from overwhelming the "goal" more important than understanding why it's so hard?

Or, are you saying that in order to conquer it, you have to understand it first, which, per my first words, I admittedly do not...
