Lesson 2: One can't catch The Fish if one is not fishing

One has to be at The River with one's Pole and actively using it.

No fish will bite the hook of the pole stored in a garage, no beautiful man/woman will come to your door (There is always an exception from any rule, for example it's a pizza delivery girl, beautiful firefighter when your house in flames, your landlord looking for you with a question about bounced check, or a postman/woman with a letter from your landlord, which may be the dream of your life too, nothing wrong with it), no career opportunities, no true anything or anyone will appear unless you seek them out and let them know about your offering... Be ready to pay the bill and to do the follow up. With more investment the chances are someone will open up the door just out of respect for your persistance. Just know what is it you can't live without, or will you live at all at some point... One's fly, lure, warm, fitness level, job skills, etc have to be the best of what is available in the given body of water (and not in your head) for the real interaction to happen...

Thank you, fisherman.

Exactly what I needed to hear.
