states that in everything we do or learn, 40% is the actual labour,
30% is experience and skills and the last 30% is risk.
If we combine all this 3, we can be masters of the craft. We can  
acheive results which are beyond our self imposed limits!
Most of the time, we fullfill the first 2 slots but never take the risk.
We search for tutorials of catia/nastran and practise all of them  
religiously. But never do we cross the boundary of that tutorial.
We fail to mix different lessons. We miss to go beyond what they  
teach. We follow but do not push beyond what is taught.
This is why learning stagnates after a while. Tutorials are there to  
start you on one path, it's upto you to take the lead and explore  
beyond the tutorials terrain.
So the point here is, in everything you do, learn or experience make  
it a point to cover the last 30%! Take risks, try new approaches, new  
methods, new experiments!! This is where the seeds of mastery are  
hidden!!
