Instead of pressing down firmly on the trackpad, you can simply tap with one finger to register the click. Tapping with two fingers will bring up the context menu (right-click menu).

You can enable this feature for System Preferences. To get started, click the Apple icon in the top-left corner of the screen, and then select the “System Preferences” option.

From the settings screen, choose the “Trackpad” option.

Now, from the “Point & Click” tab, check the box next to the “Tap to Click” option.

You can now simply tap the trackpad to click (The same goes for right-click options with two fingers.).
