There is no shortcut

You now have three goals and thirty steps. This lesson is about why the steps had to be written at all.

Nothing skips the middle

There is no version of trading where you arrive at the end without covering the distance.

The distance between where you are and the goal gets covered step by step or not at all.

The route is what stops you quitting
