I get into difficulties often, but learn something new every time!

Jumping into unkwon - I get into trouble ever so often by plunging into something I have no complete knowledge of. In the end, I learn new skills by perseverance

I am a very inquisitive fellow. I keep trying new things. Things about which I have no thorough prior knowledge. I mess up things but never to such an extent that the situation is irretrievable-fortunately. LoL!! But thank heavens, these days there is always enough help is available to look up. It takes time & great amount of patience. It is not possible to depend on someone all the time and I will definitely not be able to afford so much fee for so many new skills. But I persist and in the process, I would have learnt so many things I had not known. There is a skill addition on a regular basis. I think I am not wrong. Do you always work cautiously and only with full & formal training? Have you got into trouble with anything? Please share to help others learn.

No I don't get into trouble. I say no to it because I don't see it as trouble. I learned through the years I can handle the trouble/problems and I am even at my best if I have to puzzle out/solve things. It makes me stronger and makes me feel alive. I don't have the feeling I get into difficulties (who says these are difficulties) but I have the feeling I live my life. I do what I like to do at a certain point or I think it's the best for me. The fact it doesn't always work out the way I thought it would be is something different. My life would be dull and empty and boring if I can only live cautiously and I think I would only be frustrated and have more stress if I act after full & formal training. Because even with that it's no guarantee for success because you use the experience of someone else. And these experiences are not necessary working for you (me) as well since I am different from others.

Hi WUK! I admire that confidence & the positive outlook! I get into trouble when I boldly tread into unfamiliar terrain simply because I always get an impulse that it should be doable. Lack of ready knowledge puts things temporarily out of gear. For example I want my website [blog] to be the best place readers feel happy for visiting. I can't get someone to be my me all the time. But I trudge along!! I also appreciate your outlook about not being overcautious all the time. Thanks for sharing, as always. :)
