medusa   16 #17 Posted February 13, 2010 I'm just as bad as you in feeling that I'm doing things wrong, but I do try to remember what I say to my learners when they're struggling:  You don't learn anything from doing things right. You learn by doing the wrong thing, working out what you did wrong and then planning how not to do it wrong in future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
cori   10 #18 Posted February 13, 2010 Do not let yourself feel that way. Simple. You know everything you do is not wrong. We know it - even without knowing you. You do what you need to do. And if someone is making you feel like crap - just ignore them. Chin up.  thanx for that ... im trying hard , its not easy when feeling this low but il keep trying ......

All that happens is that they are less likely to strive hard to attain new knowledge and skills and less likely to trust their own abilities and develop.

DragonofAna   10 #23 Posted February 13, 2010 thanx for that ... im trying hard , its not easy when feeling this low but il keep trying ......  Hey - you are talking to the god of how to do everything wrong here  Keep doing and keep hoping that one day I do something right - but that's the fun of life - trying and trying again and again, and not letting someone get you down. Just remember - you cannot please all the people all the time; and you definitely will not please some people some of the time; or something to that effect.  Anyhow - you posted to sf and that was something you did right so you lose your claim to doing everything wrong.
