    You can become as proficient as you need to become.

    We are shaving our faces. That's all. Perspective is key!

    Sorry. I guess I thought of golf to compare to shaving, as the slice is dreaded in both activities!

    It also ruins a great walk through some nicely landscaped parkland...As far as slices go, I wouldn't mind a chocolate slice if you have some.

    another thing that brings me back to this thread is an interview i read with justin timberlake.. that guy is becoming an amazing golfer and basically he says that he decided to golf.. hired someone to teach him.. and set his mind to it..

    on a side note.. i get bbs everytime with my feather artist club dx.. i shave great with it.. and now i've taken interest in DE's.. well.. i kind of suck at it.. every shave so far has left both stubble and irritation.. but you know what? i will keep doing it.. i will modify my technique until i get it down.. i will master the DE.. just like anything i set my mind to. it may take me forever.. but it will happen.. even if it takes me a year or two..

    now as far as learning farsi.. i just don't think i have the energy.

    Thanks for your comments, Victor. I love your "can do" attitude. It's interesting that you have mastered a straight and are not there yet with a DE. My situation is just the reverse. We'll just keep moving forward.

    thank you.. it feels good to know i am a contributing factor to these forums.. i truly believe anyone can get to where they are going.. especially with the help of some of the great minds here at srp.. it may not be like a.a. where you have a sponsor to guide you along.. but we have so many great minds to draw from.. in my short time here i have learned who to listen to.. if you are lucky enough to have a post responded to by obie or jimmyhad... sit down and listen.. these guys know what they are talking about.


    also.. i only mentioned two mentors here cause i constantly get great advice and knowledge from them.. but there are many others.. srp is a wonderful place filled with some of the most knowledgeable and helpful people you will ever be blessed to know.
