Stop Saying “I’m Not Techy” – It’s Holding You Back
It’s time to stop saying, “I’m not techy.” If you’ve ever told yourself, “I can’t shoot videos like that” or “I can’t figure out these settings,” you’re not alone. But let’s be real, this mindset isn’t serving you. In today’s tech-driven world, saying you’re not tech savvy is just an excuse and it’s keeping you from reaching your full potential.
Technology in 2024: Easier Than Ever
We live in an age where technology has made everything easier, especially with AI. Need a website? AI can build it. Need to edit a video? AI can handle it. Tools and resources have evolved to simplify the process, not complicate it. Technology isn’t your enemy, it’s your ally.
But if you keep saying, “I’m not techy,” your mind will believe it. That belief will block you from even trying. It’s not about being an expert; it’s about being willing to learn.
Remember Learning to Drive?
Think back to when you learned to drive. It was intimidating at first – learning the rules, handling the car and passing the test. But the reward of independence and freedom outweighed the fear and effort. You pushed through because you wanted the benefit. Why not adopt the same mindset for learning new tech skills?
Whether it’s creating content, setting up tools or editing a video, the process is less daunting than it seems. Start with a willingness to figure things out. Play around with the settings. Then, test and practice. The same as when you learned to drive a car. You’ll surprise yourself with how much you learn.
Excuses Are Holding You Back
Let’s be honest: saying “I’m not techy” is often a way to avoid doing the work. This excuse is keeping you from growth. Every skill, whether learning to edit videos or using software, improves with practice. Adults learn by doing, so stop hesitating and start trying.
Embrace the Possibilities
You don’t need to know everything to get started. Use what you already have, your phone. It is a powerful tool with the capabilities of creating crisp videos. The only thing you truly need is a mindset shift. Focus on the benefits, not the obstacles and you’ll see how far you can go.
When you stop making excuses and start taking action, you’ll realize how much you’re capable of. Believe in yourself, embrace the learning process and unlock your potential.
