Someone doubts they can learn web design with outdated skills. A coach pushes back on the fear, asking for evidence, then reminds them they became a doctor. If you've done something hard before, you can do it again.

But if I think of it, I think I'm not good enough.
I think I'm not good enough for it. I think, why would anyone pay me for anything? I think even if I did have the skills, how on earth would I find people to pay me for websites? And then I think even if I did do that, is it actually something that I would enjoy? Okay. And yeah.
So all of those things, like, perfectly valid. But how do you know that any of them are true? What evidence do you have?
Yeah, honestly, I don't really have any evidence for it. I think it's just the fear of like, I know my skills in web design are kind of old now. I know that the frameworks and stuff have evolved. People are using all this new software, which I don't yet know how to use. And yeah, I guess in my mind, I'm thinking it's going to be a way harder hurdle to cross.
Okay. But you thought becoming a doctor might be hard. You did that.
That's a good point. Yeah.
Yeah. So you're perfectly capable.
