It’s easy to feel like everyone is ahead of you. We see investors in education and assume everyone is on the same path. However, if personal growth truly worked that way, not everyone would follow the same rules.
It’s very easy to get caught up in the hype that everyone is ahead. You might be surrounded by people who love to learn, but they are the minority. It’s rare for someone to invest in education after graduation. Most people still prioritize entertainment and pleasure.
Advance at Your Own Pace.
Move forward calmly. Alleviate your worries and believe in yourself. Every hour you invest will pay off. You might not know when these skills will be needed—perhaps tomorrow or in five years—but isn’t that the essence of progress? You can’t always foresee the future, but you can be prepared when the time comes. As Steve Jobs put it, “You can only connect the dots looking backwards.”
The Importance of Continuous Learning.
Every moment spent investing in education puts you ahead of others. Both theory and experience are crucial in learning. While experience is often considered more important, the two are interconnected. Learn something new and put it into practice. Practice first and then learn better. You cannot choose one over the other.
Overcome Misconceptions and Fears.
Let go of any misconceptions about learning. Conquer your fears. As long as you continuously improve, you will always be ahead. You will be able to handle whatever life throws at you.
