Some of the most simplistic forms of addressing the ills that plagues us as a people are applied without much thought. If you in fact have the type of job that involves a lot of standing, simply remove your shoes once you've entered the door and fling them in some far corner of the room - landing them safely in the closet is optional. The second step requires even less thought, put your feet up - again, gravity is good for healing purposes. The last step is somewhat tricky. Since you have now forgotten to include a cold beverage in your hand before securing that perfect spot on the bed, couch, floor - fill in the blank - I find it easier to just hop up right away, as opposed to lingering there wondering how or when to navigate the fore-gone conclusion, you're going to get up! Now these types of decisions are made hundreds of times a day with little fanfare. However, when life's travails are escalated to include some financial pressures or even worse, some sort of medical intervention, those decisions may require some outside expertise, enter said experts.
It probably doesn't surprise you that people who operate in the capacity of easing the ills of our society, come with a nice price tag. It seems their knowledge that we need to hear - namely the answer, anecdote, and the formula for success - offset the concerns over the money they may be charging. The good news is that we have a person -in these professionals - that understands our pain and suffering, and has a recommendation that we can use or apply to our ill wills. Life goes on, the earth rotates on its axis, and we live to grow old applying that same regimen day in and day out.
Conversely, a different element operates in our society alongside the trusted, legitimate ones described above, the unofficial spokesperson on all other subject matters. Now, that, good friends include everybody else. From subject matter (A) to obscure and controversial (Z), the advice comes from friends and foes alike. No matter what comes up there is somebody that either knows, or knows somebody who knows. In the casino alone there are any number of genius' just waiting for the opportunity to impart their considerable knowledge to again - like the doctor - ease the pain of our ill wills. If you are playing the game of poker - I've said this many times before, and it bears repeating - "You are going to experience the "pain" of this game sooner or later." The losing droughts that invade your poker expertise come like an uninvited guest - they come in and don't want to leave - particularly if you are playing the small to medium limit games.
It's by design that this unforgiving game doesn't play by the rules, allows poor players to prosper in the short term, and who knows, beyond. Because, by the time this person has won until he/she gets tired, who's keeping track after that! People who are losing get desperate after awhile. Their normal resolve is tested beyond the point of understanding; thereby creating doubt - domino effect - in everything, enter poker experts. Here lies the fork in the road for people who think like me. How do you break this cycle of bad, damning events that are now effecting all decisions in and out of the casino? Do we talk to the casino experts? Maybe, but for my money though, we take a break or get a lawyer.
Listen; here is the difference between poker experts and lawyers. For a price, a lawyer will try to get you out of anything!
