I partially disagree.
learning the hard way isnt the only option.
most ppl, even serious players, are too proud to humble themselves enough to sincerely approach a coach, and take to heart what they have to teach you.
if this is you ^^^, then, ya, youre right.
even on this board, there are oppurtunities to learn from mistakes that get posted.
if you want to pass up on that, go for it, in the name of garnering 'experience'.
