[access-uk] Re: how does one build confidence

Hi Andy

The best way that I have found to build my confidence is to teach someone
else the things I know.  If you are talking about your confidence to go out
and about with your guide dog, then perhaps you could buddy up with a new
guide dog owner in the area?  Guide dogs could help you with this.  When I
trained with my latest dog, my trainer introduced me to a recently blind,
new guide dog owner.  I became his mentor but we soon became friends and now
meet for lunch every week.  

Also, something that I tell my girlfriend every time she goes for a driving
lesson is that she has done it before so she can do it again.  Use it as a
mantra when you feel your confidence sliding.

Hope that helps

Barry
