Learn to Type- Part I- Motivation for Beginners

Learning how to type is very discouraging at first. You don't know how to use all the 9 or 10 fingers effectively. You start to feel the pain or strain on your fingers after a while of typing. You get frustrated by your typing speed because initially it is much less than average.

But this is the time when you should be patient and work on your ability to increase the accuracy as well as speed. For this scenario, there is an example which you can consider as a motivation in the way of your learning.

"When an infant starts to talk, his pronunciation, grammar, speed, accuracy and many more aspects which we adults have excelled is not a matter of concern for them. The child just tries his/her best to express himself/herself. It is matter of practice that made him/her a fluent speaker." We all were once a child and learned many things by just hit and trial method as one may call it "broader sense of view".

Now lets return to our topic, does this example motivate you in any way. Learning new is the habit of children, adults feel that they should not devote their time in learning something new. But the case is there's no restriction on age to learn something new. Typing is skill or ability which is required in many fields of work.

Professionals can give much more experience of how typing is important as they have to reply a whole bunch of e-mails. Programmers write long codes in as few time as possible as they are time bound by their position. Stenographers are professional typist required in many fields of work. So improved typing skill may give a slight greater chance of being recruited for a position where competition is intense.

I would say that typing is a skill which can developed at an age of 8 years or 60 years. Because age is just a number. It just require a whole lot of practice with right fingers on right keys, right posture and time of course. I would request you all find an example by yourself that motivates you to make your typing better.

A new skill is an ADD ON with the existing plan.
