You can read as much material as you want, watch as many how-to videos as you want and analyze the result as much as you want, but you will feel severely let down when you try the project yourself and fail.
Research builds confidence and confidence creates an expectation of knowing how, but then the struggle sets in of actually doing.
It’s worth accepting that failure (or practice, if you will) is the essential piece to knowing how.
Experience is what sets an expectation on the path toward reality.
Knowledge sets an expectation on the path toward disappointment.
Yes, do the reading. It will help. But don’t let a first, second or third fall make you stop.
Stay Positive & Dust Yourself Off And Get More Experience
