The more qualified we are the less emotional baggage to get in the way. But, of course any new endeavor may require skills that are not yet developed. I believe it is all about the attitude you have when you begin this new journey. To not engage in something new because of a lack of skill only inhibits you from growing as a person. As we get older we tend to get set in our ways, avoiding things we lack experience in. I for one look at this as a challenge. We should never be to old to learn. The satisfaction that accompanies mastering something new is extremely rewarding. Apprehension disipates as a new skill set is acquired. With most things I do these days, I never look at it as work, but rather categorize it as hobitational. This word will not be found in Merriam Webster Dictionary, it is simply a word I have come up with to recategorize something that to others may feel like work, into something that is more like a hobby. Attitude is everything!
