The second thing I've learned is that there is never a quick fix for anything. Every time you hear someone say, "Just ten steps to happiness/fame/millions of dollars! It's easy, and fast!", their advice is invariably wrong and/or misleading. There are no shortcuts in life. It's either work as hard as you can and achieve what you want, or sit around on your lazy butt and achieve absolutely nothing. There is no in-between.

You mean... there ain't no free lunch...???

Just kidding... very well said DiscoDan...
