DB 25 connector

[W.A.Strong]

After a couple of fails in my attempt to make a computer jack (serial) to bring ot pins 4 and 7 I am asking for  some "How TO"  info. 
I get my wire soldered to that small insert but attempts to insert it into the body of the jack result in distorting and breaking of that small part. 
Is there an esy way to do this or some technique I need to know ? I am inserting from the back side, is this correct? Admittantly my eyesight and depth preception are not the best. Any help out there ?  This is a 25 pin output from back of computer.
