It’s not about easy or hard, you are feeling easy just because your real money is not on the line. The moment your real money is into the market, you are under emotions and loose trades. Demo is easy in that way if you are learning trading in your early years. It is easy because you get to have real market experience with no real money on the line.

Demo is never easy, if you are perfect in demo trading and can comfortably make profits, as long you are discipline, You will make it too in live.
I traded demo for complete 1 year consistently back in 2007 till 2008 when I got my first funding of over €200k, things changes from there and became proffesional trader having traded for various bank and private funds company.
Today I still trade on demo , but only when a client wants me to manage his/her live accounts on a broker I'm not familiar with, I simple open demo with that broker and run it copying from my live accounts to see how the broker speed performs.

The only difference between demo and live account is of real money and when one start trading with real money then of course a fear set in and which can make you take few bad decisions and eventually impact your trading and in demo account if you're losing even you would not worry about anything.

You do not have to worry about losing your money when you are demo trading. your demo account does not demonstrate to you industry standards to manage the sentiment fear. That's why you remain emotions while in demo. But when you come to live trading from demo trading, you brings emotions (the fear of losing and greed more more profit) with you. That's why the result between demo and real account is not the same.
I agree with you, the results in demo and live accounts are never same. The demo accounts are only helpful if take the virtual funds as serious as we take our funds and place the trades accordingly.

Apart from not being able to experience the emotional side of trading, I do think demo trading is a very useful step in successfully putting your knowledge to action.

Demo trading is a platform where you practice, and practice prepares you for the reality, but what practice doesn't include is unforeseen obstacles which are surely their when you get into the the real word. Similarly when it comes to trading, demo is easy because you don't actually loose your money its just the virtual money with which you play.
The more your practice, the more you learn.

Demo is easy because it has no risks and it can be operated without any investment.

If you don't mind my asking, what is it that you find harder when trading with a real account? Is it the emotions of trading, or something else?

Demo trading is devoid of emotions That's why making profit here is easier. It says us te importance of psychology. We need to be emotionless while trading. Open trade only when every aspects of your strategy is matching with the market.
Demo trading is helful if we trade on demo account with same emotions as we do on live account.

Demo accounts are not always the same like real accounts, it doesn't always have to do something with your mindset only.
Most retail brokers have a different behavior as soon as it comes to real accounts with real good profits. The 'bad' behavior that you won't see on a demo account is: restricting withdrawals, server time-outs during trades, blocked EAs or trading strategies, higher spreads/slippages/commissions and so on. Demo accounts are most probably for marketing purposes only, but yeah you can also learn the simple trading stuff you need before starting any real account; that's correct.

It seems to be easy because the trader is under no pressure or stress to loose his money.
Risk is least.

If you don't have the correct mindset for your own trading style then it doesn't matter if you trade on demo or real. If you change your mindset on a real account you should work on your original mindset then.

I totally agree! And there are many people trading with real accounts who still use demo accounts to test their methods.
