This question reminds me of something that I read most recently...
A young man was very hungry and had been trying to get his mother to cook dinner for a while. She was so engaged in the television program that he believed that she wasn't paying him any attention or his needs.
The young man went to the refrigerator/freezer and got out some "ready-made" pizza. He looked on the back of the box and the instructions suggested that he is to pre-heat the over to 450 for 5-8 minutes. This young man was livid - he had to wait 8 minutes just to "heat" the oven?
He kept reading - "put pizza in oven for 20 minutes, then remove and let sit for 5 minutes." There was no way this young man was going to sit for 30 minutes while the pizza was preparing. He decided to skip a few of the steps so that he could get right to the "good stuff."
In his skipping some steps, he found a "shortcut" to getting the pizza done, but it wasn't ready.
The truth is, you can always find shortcuts, but all they do is get you to a destination, but it's never where you ultimately wanted to go. Don't shortcut - enjoy the ride!
