Nice post JR. I think you are putting your finger on what is, at least in my opinion, challenging the country right now, in toto. The idea that you can have everything, all the time, seems to be coming to the fore. But the reality, as you put it, is that you need to pick one thing and work on it. Also, other people might not want to do what you think is essential. If you aren't willing to look at the world through their eyes, you will miss this, the reasoning behind it. And, yes, there is reasoning there.
Anyway, doing time in the trenches, so to speak, can only help you if you spend that time learning why trenches were dug.
