I make my living online (web marketing company)..When i first started learning from scratch , i had to be a jack of all trades first, Web Design , Copywriting , Search Engine Optimisation , even running my own forum on joomla platform for a few years..Only after a few years was i able to specialise in what i wanted which i already knew when i first started..But in the beginning i had to learn and do everything
In the same way , A passion of mine is Muay Thai. And in that too had to learn a whole lot of stuff (stance , clinch , defense , counter striking , cardio , etc) when i first started..But when i had my first pro fight i was more proficient in counter striking than the rest...But counter striking was my aim since the day i started training.
I dont find anything wrong in having a goal to move toward while learning as much as i can in the areas im interested in.
I know from experience it ain't easy moderating a forum and i do appreciate the effort , but a sarcastic tone that stops new guys
from wanting to ask questions cause of the risk of negative responses isn't a good environment online or offline.Just my 2 cents..
