IWTL How to type properly

Technology

I use a computer a lot but due to some bad typing habits I can't get above about 40/50 words per minute. This is because I don't use my pinkies while typing and instead use my ring or middle finger on the keys I should be using my pinkie for.

Has anyone had any similar experiences or advice on how to unlearn my old typing habits? I suspect this won't be easy considering I've been typing this way for the past 13 years.

I had similar challenges when learning typing. My advice is to type a fair amount every day and never let yourself look at the keyboard. I started doing this at work and I was typing correctly in no time.
