The important part is whether you enjoy it. If it does, keep on enjoying it. If it doesn't, stop right away.

There's no obligation to reach any specific goal. If you accidentally manage to be a top-tier tournament champion, great ...

Re: My first few games on KGS

Re: Starting go in your later years
