Yeah, spoon, I thought about linking several of your "discipline" threads in OP, but ~ meh ~ I couldn't find the discipline to grind it out.

Seriously, though, I 'm sitting there on the brink of disaster. As I realize it and stand up, I'm thinking, I'm really glad I took the long road to get here. Several thoughts from a few of your threads over the last 6 months came to mind, along with some simple sanity.

It's the micro-grinding process, not the results, that taught me the most.
