Re: lack of practical knowledge & how to handle this?

Associate with individuals, who do not overwhelm you and/or engulf your knowledge with their knowledge. This is not to say to avoid those who are more knowledgeable than you because that would not be an intelligent way of being. I think there are two kinds of people. Those that overpower others with their knowledge and those that enlighten. Avoiding the former should take care of the feeling of not knowing what one does know.

I am not sure if one can be made confident of self-confidence. The surety of confidence can be boosted but the level of confidence tends to vary in different circumstances.

pick the subject or skill which you feel is the most hardest and learn it. :)

thanks folks. really inspiring ideas in what you all have said. esp that one about being with good company, & trying new things, having a go at them. of course reading posts at gs is a good practice, given that they are analyzed, thoroughly :>
