I’m one millimeter away. What little thing am I going to change, and when I do, it changes everything?’ Those words spoken by Tony Robbins really got me thinking. It got me thinking that the difference between being a winner and a loser can only be a millimeter apart! Just a small change can change everything! And a lot of that change comes from within our mind! Sometimes, getting something to work when using the computer can be the difference of just a very small change!

It’s […] - [Learning to use a computer is like lighting a fire!](https://computerlessonsmadeeasy.co.nz/using-a-computer/):   If you’ve ever built a fire (or seen someone build one) then you may have noticed this: To build a successful fire, you need these ingredients: It’s called the “Fire Triangle” and the three ingredients are “Heat”, “Fuel” and “Oxygen”.
