Don't cheat the system by rationalizing shortcuts. Learn the actual rules first, then play by them. Even respected people in CSI and manufacturing got caught cutting corners.

Don't cheat the system by rationalizing shortcuts. Learn the actual rules first, then play by them. Even respected people in CSI and manufacturing got caught cutting corners.
But the other thing is, is so you're not mousing the system. Like, the worst thing you can do, and I've seen this with CSI and with different stuff, is people that I respect and I would have never thought end up cheating, trying to cheat the system somehow. And I know, you know, you could. You could justify anything in your mind if you want. You could say, oh, well, the manufacturers are always changing, and they don't know what they're doing, or whatever. So that's why I cheated. But that's not the right way to do it. We should never be cheating. We should try to understand what's going on, and then we should adapt and play the game the best that we can. And just understanding that life is a game inside of a set of rules. And once you understand the rules, then you can play the game.
