Why do we resist change so strongly, treating it with suspicion and doubting its benefits. Is seems as years pass we become even more resistant to change, treating new things with trepidation.
Perhaps that is why children and young people have grasped the internet so positively, become technology literate quickly and so easily understand the intricacies of a laptop and its workings, plus all the other technological gadgets on the market
Young children exposed to different languages seem to pick them up with ease, is it because when we are young we believe we can do anything, everything is an exciting adventure; whereas as we get older we become more cautious and weigh up the pros and cons, and even doubt our ability to absorb with ease, the technology and digest the information.
I have an XP laptop which has to be around 10 years old, I love it, I replaced it with a reconditioned windows 7.
To try and make the transition to windows 8 easier I did purchase a Windows 8 manual which had great illustrations etc. However fear of the unknown took over and I decided on a windows 7. There are good things about it, it is faster, it has a much clearer screen etc but I still prefer to us my old XP and put up with its slow loading and other ideosyncrasies. Besides which my XP has a pale coloured keys, which as I don't touch type, are much easier to see in poor light, and I prefer the storage system of my XP. Long live my XP!
Yesterday I read an article on the web in which a gentleman had asked for help in purchasing an XP laptop, the technical guy tore him to shreds with his comments about not keeping up with technology, surely life is a choice!
Maybe it is just the fact I'm a technophobe. However in other ways I am more adventurous, I have made a life changing decision to spend winters in the sun, at an age well past retirement, which I can totally recommend to anyone considering it; even though I need a dictionary to work out my shopping list as my new Spanish course seems to feel it is more important to learn animals names before useful phrases!
Besides living in and exploring a new, country and learning their language I am building an affiliate marketing business, which proves affiliate marketing is suitable for almost anyone with a determination to succeed. There is no age limit, it caters for all technical abilities, male or female and if you find a good mentor you will make it much easier for yourself. You really do only need a laptop and good internet connection, and can live pretty much anywhere. Lack of technical knowledge can make it a bit tricky at times but I like a challenge, Affiliate marketing gives me an interest, a challenge and great satisfaction. If you have a dream go for it, it is never too late to learn new skills.
