I would add this thought. You have to do it all. It's necessary to get out and see people, places and new things in the 'industry'. You have to hide in the basement configuring gear, you have to spend countless hours at the library, you have to read everything you can get your hands on, you have to take the class, pass the test. Spend hours writing code, reading magazines, talking to gurus at trade shows, etc. You have to try, fail, succeed, imitate, create, as much as possible.
If you don't, then you'll be less that all you could be, and you'll be short. Train hard, fight easy. Simple as that. IMHO.
Best, HAL
p.s. but Don is right, to many people screw around and call it 'training'. So find the balance. Anyway, Don, thank you again for your contributions to makiAnd thanksng a larger world and better place for all. And thanks for letting us copy your homework...
