The fake idea

# Chapter 214

I was so insistent on shortcuts, that I tried to tell my Russian teachers at Rostov State University in Rostov-na-donu Russian how Russian language should be constructed. Thus was the man who barely knows English grammar and here I am insisting that there is a quicker short better faster way to speak Russian. Needless to say, that was quite a bit of wasted energy trying to fix Russian. It wasn’t and isn’t broken in the first place - the only problem with learning Russian and learning it well is to do the hard work. No shortcuts to language learning, construction, auto mechanicing, professional hockey, coaching, consulting, nor my doctorate degree. Do the hard work. That is the one and only solution. Shortcuts don’t exist in these fields or any other fields, as far as I can see.

Shortcuts are nothing more than an indication of the character of the person. And I get it honest from my dad. The truck we have just rebuilt is filled with visual reminders of his impatience and shortcuts. But this only affects us sporadically now that we are both ancient and old as dirt. It doesn’t affect us at all if we are working on stuff that we are true experts at and have a high level of expertise. It affects us most when we are working on monotonous repetitious tasks that we are less expert in, that it can really run amok. But at the core, short cuts is fake idea, that you can cheat the process and still retain the results needed. It is also an indicator of the laziness of this person.
