Make reliable goals and surprise yourself positively.
I’m certain that you’re right about diminishing returns but, like IronlionZion, I have proceeded a bit conservatively after suffering some newbie trauma coming out of the starting gate. Consequently, I think I might still have some running room ahead and am encouraged by the surprisingly positive posts that have been made to this thread. Also, it’s clear that from my random perusal of the TP stats database I’ve overlooked a lot of you who have made consistent gains over the long haul. Finally, I agree that a positive attitude goes a long way towards contributing to gains. I have certainly found myself being somewhat of a defeatist at times but that clearly only works against making progress.
I’ve learned a lot here at the TP forums but have had difficulty discerning folklore from useful information at times. Like the rest of the content you can find on the internet, you just have to be patient and spend adequate time and apply common sense in gleaning real information from a ponderous amount of content. This is an excellent forum and the folks here have been remarkably helpful. Thanks again to all who have replied.
