I guess this all depends on what you are using the drill for. Many of the drills on the market today also couple as screwdrivers. Remember to ALWAYS wear eye protection when using any type of machinery. If you bought the drill new, you should have a booklet that shows how to change the "bits" (also known as using the chuck) Place a dot on the area that you need to drill, that way you know exactly where you need to do the drilling. Use both hands. One to press the "trigger" the other to hold the drill steady. Never use a drill with one hand. Hold the drill firmly to the area to be drilled and until you get use to using a drill, press the trigger lightly. Use your own descresion as to the speed that feels comfortable to you. If you press the trigger fully, exspecially if you are a newbie to the whole process. you have a chance of the drill getting away from you, and taking off on it's own. Firmly hold the drill to the exact spot that you need to drill and press the trigger. Once you have drilled the hole that you need, continue to press the trigger, and pull the bit from the hole as this will, help "bore out" the hole.
Good luck and Happy Drilling!

Your best bet is to go to your local hardware store and pick up a scrap piece of 2x4 or some thick wood piece. They usually have them for free or for a very cheap price. Use this as your practice and just drill it till it looks like swiss cheese! The more practice, the better you will be.

The biggest thing to worry about is your confidence in handling the drill. By practicing you will become more comfortable with the drill and not think of it as being such a scary item!

And, once you get drilling down, you will feel like an all powerful champ! :)

Good luck and have fun!

Place the smooth side of the drill bit into the chuck. (That is where the bit is connected to the drill), with the pointed end towards your project.

If the drill is corded, meaning you plug it in, make sure it is plugged in, or if cordless place the battery in. If the drill is a hand held, or crank drill, turn the knob in the appropriate direction.

Depress the trigger and slowly and firmly apply pressure to the back of the drill.
