There are actually tons of shortcuts that pilots take. Ask the pilot who got onto a regional two years ago at 300 hours. His life will be incredibly easier than a struggling CFI right now. There are no pilots given or glory gained in aviation by intentionally taking the hard road. Find your shortest route to your goal and go for it.
In times like these it might mean buying a job.
