Best advice I can give you right there. The act of teaching someone something brings out all of the areas you aren't clear on or don't know. This stuff isn't going to make sense over night.

AP and Salmo bring up great points as well. They have years of experience and if they are willing to share it, LISTEN. That's it. If you don't agree, keep it to yourself and figure it out the hard way. I can honestly say I have learned a lot about the sport from both of these individuals from their posts. Rarely have I disagreed with what they have suggested and more often than not, it has saved me a lot of time making the mistakes on my own.
