Hi ,
I don´t know if this is the right place to talk about it but I will anyway .
I have a dream to be a computer technician but today I made a stupid mstake on a latop , I broke the port to connect the mouse , either the clip and a bit of the base of the port , don´t ask me How I did that ... I really don´t know , I opened the same laptop so many times without breaking anything ;( . What I want to ask to the community iis that someone here is a technician and had make the same stupid mistakes as me before .
I am a little sad in this situation and without any confidence to still dream about this area .
thanks to anyone who had read this and answer to this with sincerity .
Hope that the rest of you guys have a good day .
 
Solution
In the realm of "fixing things", everyone has broken something accidentally.
Cars, computers, plumbing, fighter jets...

Everyone.

Now that you know what you did, you'll be better prepared next time.

Nothing wrong with making a mistake my friend, it is an important part of learning. Just don't make the same mistake twice.

And giving up on your dream because you made a mistake would be a mistake you can't come back from.

One of my systems, about a year ago. I fatfingered putting the CPU in, and dropped it on the socket pins:

Bent motherboard pins
Before - No boot

After - boot success

Just don't be afraid to try.
But figure out how and what you're going to do before you do it.
