Most people lack confidence in at least one area of their lives. For example, many older people are terrified of
computers, and are convinced they couldn’t master one.
But, tutors who run adult education classes in computer skills and literacy will tell you that once they’ve overcome that initial uncertainty, older people are as fast as younger ones at accumulating skills. In fact, sometimes they are faster as they have the patience and wisdom to deal calmly with problems and keep learning. So, if you’re a little unsure about something, write down all the things that you’ve achieved in the past – to ride a bike, drive a car, pass exams, all sorts of things. You’ll find some of these are linked in some way to the computer skills that you might want to acquire! If you’ve been successful at something before, you’ll succeed again and again in different other things.
