Whenever I ask a person a question about a skill, I notice some people have a tendency to use the word "hard" to describe his or her feelings toward an experience. And yes, I do believe they're feelings and they're not an objective fact. As a college graduate, I understand what that word means. It means it takes a lot of energy and effort from the doers to perform certain tasks in life and we not only talking about school work; I'm referring to tasks at a particular job such as at a Starbucks, a restaurant, at an office, computer science, etc.
As a kid, I dread that word when I heard it from classmates ( especially this bunch), neighbor friends, church friends, strangers, etc. Sadly almost about everyone I know on this planet used that word now and then in my presence.
Instead of using the word hard, we should describe a particular activity as "it takes a lot of work." When I hear this phrase, my mind thinks there are ways and techniques to do certain tasks easily and we can do them well too.
My conclusion is when we learn anything in life we should have the right mindset first and then we can do much more from that.
