CH’s tips for taking on something new:
1) Do not be afraid to turn down the offer from a friend or partner who wants to be the teacher; sometimes, learning from someone we are close to doesn’t always provide the best learning environment or set us up for the right level of success.
2) See if there is a workshop, a class, a clinic, etc. that is local to your area to enroll or participate in person; if not in person, see if is there a virtual option.
3) If unsure about the level of skill or pre-requisites that may be required, reach out to the organization and ask so you can feel comfortable enrolling or participating; this may also include asking about a given instructor.
4) Give yourself permission to learn at your pace; if you don’t get it right away, don’t get discouraged; keep at it in a way that makes you feel comfortable and successful.
