The Tortoise
This is my first ever Blog so I'll keep it short-ish! The title 'The Tortoise' is very apt for me as I am making progress and learning albeit slowly. I am one of those creatures that has to know how and why I made a mistake or why something didn't work. If I have to do the same thing over and over again I will because I need to have a good understanding of what I'm doing. I will only ask questions or ask for advice when I am totally stuck and don't know which way to turn.
My approach may seem a bit madcap but it's the way I learn and as I become more knowledgeable and confident in what I'm doing I hope that one day I'll be able to help others.

I do not believe it's madcap at all. My approach is very similar. It just takes people like us longer (and at times maybe more frustrating!) to grasp the "how to" or "how to learn" concepts so we can move forward. Start simple and build on that. The trick though...keep moving forward no matter what and no matter what the pace. The "tortoise" says it all...great start!
Hi Guy, sometimes taking that extra time to let thing sink in actually pays dividends down the track, the thing about WA is that it is not a race so moving at our own pace can be one of the best things that we can do.
Best wishes.
Hi Guy. Everyone has there own ideal way to learn. Slow and steady is a great idea, that way you don't miss anything. Jim
You approached is not madcap Guy but one that will give you success as you stated you want to know the right way and why.
Remember there may be times the Tortoise may go into its shell but know that when it rears its head outside it only knows one thing.
That way is forward. Just keep learning your way and enjoy all you do. Keep believing in yourself and always go forward.

HI Guy, I can relate to this, I return often to the training to watch a video over to make sure i understand the process. If that is what works for you that's great! Keep it up.
Hi Guy, Great post but don't be afraid to let rip. Slowly, slowly catchy monkey, but try to get a bit more wordy with it.
If you ever need any help then don't hesitate to get in touch

Hi Ade,
Thanks for the advice. I'll try to be a bit more wordy next time and 'let rip'.

Not madcap, maybe old school like me. Accepting something works not enough for me. I have to know how it works and how to fix it if its broken.
