Your comment does bias me slightly in favor of Indy, since at least we're talking about a manageable car ride.That said, I'd love to know the biggest mistakes you've seen - how do neophytes typically "crash and burn?"

Marcus --- I appreciate the insight here, thanks for taking the time to comment.

So, for anyone who is further along in their journey that came across a book or content that was helpful to developing these skills, please drop a comment!

Hey Jaycee, thanks for commenting and the welcome!
