Trust the Process, and eventually you will get there! :)

No. You can get a allen key and fix the high action very easily. or you can go the nearest guitar store. high action is frustrating and can take all your interest away from the guitar.

DEPENDS, If you have an electric guitar higher action gives you better tone and texture.Acoustic guitars should be on sustainable action as it is only going to hurt your fingers. While adjusting the action of your guitar seek professional help.
