PPL Completion time and impact on future

Dear Guys and Gals,

Some advice really.....

I took 22 hours to solo when doing my fixed wing PPL and I when I eventually passed the test, I had 57 hours dual and 13 hours P1. 70 seems a lot compared to other people that I talk to.

My instuctor was very new so that added on a bit and I also had a lot of pre-solo checkouts due to breaks caused by bad weather. I did quite a bit over a 4 week period then slowed down due to having to go back to work.

I am only 20 and thinking of moving into flying for a career. Will the fact that I took way over 45 hours cause me problems in the future???

Thanks

P
