Many people who start out at a craft or hobby fall into the trap of thinking they need to get the best and most expensive equipment in order to improve or "get good".

In most cases the better equipment might feel nicer to work with, but doesn't really improve the performance of their wielder.

The hard truth that can be hard to accept, is that the pro's are really good because they put a lot of time and effort into getting there. And there really are no shortcuts around that.
