ATTENTION: WHITES: THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE.

This is a small excerpt from my post recently about malware hitting my sites and the problems coming out of that. What I’m trying to tell you here is critically important:

I urge all whites to actually push the edge and do things, and then observe what happens. This is the best way to learn and to observe. You will then begin to learn some interesting things… and this is the best way forward. We can move forward faster by observing through practical experience. Don’t get too hung up on theory always. Theory and reading is important. But practical experience becomes even more useful.

You will see that we’ll move forward much faster if we focus on overcoming problems and facing the lemons head on. The lemons are extremely instructive. It tells us a lot even about our enemies. One can draw many interesting conclusions from this. So just focus hard and PUSH FORWARD. Jump through the hoops and observe. We will be able to make huge progress much faster even though it appears as if we are being hit with one disaster after another. The “disaster” is extremely instructive because it allows us “face to face interaction” with our enemies. This is more valuable than Gold.
