A320, be careful not to belittle minimad's comments. Attitude and behaviour counts for a lot in aviation and he's outlining the sort of mindset you need to have to achieve a goal generally.
Problem solving and a positive attitude can go a long way - there may not be an abundance of the desired mid range jets for wannabees but there are other flying opportunties
if you look hard enough.
Becoming fixated with a "I'm going to
climb this wall" may not be as productive as "I'm going to
get round this wall one way or another" kind of attitude.
PS Minimad: About that wall you refer to. Yes you can go
over it,
under it,
through it,
around it. Alternatively you could always build your own wall
