>This is generally why I'm skeptical of anyone that thinks they can distill down their success in a given field into a single book or video series, when invariably their success is a result of 10+ years of experience, practice, and overcoming obstacles.
I just want to complement you for this excellent distillation of the problem with this kind of course without descending into backhanded complements.
When I heard about the course, something did strike me as "off" in the sense of needing to be explained. It feels like a shortcut, a whirlwind tour, or worse, a "master class" that leaves out something important. And what it leaves out is the grind, and the tedium, and the meta-understanding that those are aspects of successful work.
