A "natural" reaction to the previous message might be to protest that it is too much work and/or there is not enough payoff - or even the "I tried it before and it didn't work" (to which the response might be "well, do it right this time" or "don't stop until you get the desired results" or "there is always a way").
One remark about a number of items on the site is that they were "too simplistic". OK, fine, just learn as much as you can - and then it is up to you to go deeper and find a better resource, possibly reading some of the books or experts I refer you to on the site.
One of my objectives on the site, due to feedback and some thinking about it, is to convert it so it is "top down", going from summaries and simpler items down deeper into more detail and technique. So, take the simplistic as merely an overview, which of course could be useful for getting perspective. And, yes, I will add some pieces that actually show a complete sequence or procedure to apply - ones that work.
And you don't need to believe everything, but I urge you to consider that some things have been proven over and over and over. Give the item an open-minded look - and, please, don't put your certainty about your beliefs and "perceptions" out there as "for sure being true!"!
"But can't you give me a shortcut, a pithy insight, and make me all better?"
No. And seeking the easy solutions or the ways around doing what is necessary will take up your time and enmesh you into resistance. You've just got to do the work - and the evidence that you are doing the work is that you get the results. If you are not getting the results, then, with backward reasoning, that means you haven't done the work.
Perhaps you need to find a better resource if the ones you have been using are not working, for whatever reason. But the most reliable reason for your not getting the desired results is that you have not done the work - and you need to do it - and it will take time and focused effort! (See Learning Authentically.)
I hope you choose to do this - 'cause you ain't finished 'til you're finished, and not before then - so keep on keepin' on.
