the message I was replying to specifically was more along the lines of "i thought i could do it, i couldn't do it, so you probably can't either." some people are focused on me learning what i need to teach, but some are focused on telling me it's impossible to do so just quit.

again, i totally understand what you are saying, and i respect the experiences of all of the people here. that's the reason why i didn't just go out and read a book and call it a day. learning what I need to learn is the entire purpose of "research" and "getting prepared" which I am currently in the process of doing.
