That was my goal. I couldn't reach that goal without my mentor. My...

Almost everything that we learn is pretty easy when you boil it down, the real problem is that not everyone learns the way that the book or the teacher teaches it. So the first step is always to figure out how YOU learn, and we'll get started from there!
