The artistry of being a pilot is sadly a dying thing.
Master your craft, don't just wear the uniform for the fat chicks.
+1, Agreed. Everyone wants to do well, but unfortunately it's human nature to try and find the easy way. I can recall someone in training just raised their hand and said..."yea, that's great but what's actually going to be on test?" This is when it really becomes sad; when people that consider aviation to be their passion, start to fall into this mindset. You really can't know too much or be too proficient.
