I wanted to take a moment and share my view on programs. You know, specific programs that you can find out there in the wild. Here's the summary: - You need a plan...some kind of program...but there's no magic in it. - The test is whether or not you're making progress. If you are, then you're just where you need to be. If not, a change might be in order. - However, do not get caught up in the game of chasing down the perfect program for you. No such thing exists! There's no magic out there. You just need to understand which tool might be best for you right now.  - Your first warning sign is when you feel frustrated that maybe someone else is doing something better. That's a lie. Enjoy,
