Feb 1 at 16:23 | comment | added | Nate River | @LSpice Ah, I added that in later so maybe that’s why you missed it. A lot of people I think are guilty of being stuck on the “I need more background” phase, so I think your advice of giving it a serious go anyway at some point is a very good idea. | |
Feb 1 at 16:22 | comment | added | LSpice | Very sorry, I seem simply to have blindly skipped over the sentence "Conversely it is also important to know when you do have enough background/skill and it is time to start reading.", which says better what my comment presumed to add. | |
Feb 1 at 16:18 | comment | added | Nate River | @LSpice Ah yes, agreed that actually giving it a go at some point, even if you think you’re not prepared is a good idea. At least it will point out areas you’re lacking in, or you may discover that you actually are capable of doing it after all. | |
Feb 1 at 16:16 | comment | added | LSpice | But it's important to have given it a serious go first before setting it aside! I think I'm not the only one who has a problem with preëmptively setting things aside because their reputation makes me think that they're too hard to read, when actually they are, if not easy, then at least accessible to mortals. | |
