Learning at work, learning at school*
Thread Content
Learning at school is semi-mandatory; there are things that you must learn in class, whether you will need them in the future or not. There are also things that the teacher doesn’t require you to learn, and you may not even know if they are useful, but if you are interested in them, you can study them on your own in the library. In short, it’s a form of learning without a specific purpose, a form of general education. Learning after starting work is voluntary and aimed at filling in any gaps in knowledge; learning equals value. Whether one can demonstrate their value in a given position depends on their depth of knowledge, practical skills, as well as various comprehensive qualities such as social skills. What one has not learned*, that is, what is still lacking for one to realize self-worth and what one is short of compared to competitors. In short, the purpose of learning* is very clear, and it involves a high degree of self-awareness
Yes, learning it again when it’s needed at work gives more motivation and leads to better results! However, there are some things that may not be useful for now, but it’s still necessary to keep learning. We live in an era of competition; those who don’t keep learning will be left behind! The jobs available these days aren’t exactly stable either, so it’s important to learn as much as possible to have more options
That makes a lot of sense. These past few days I’ve not been able to focus at work; my mind is in chaos, I’m confused and don’t know where the way forward lies……
Being confused shows that one still has ambition and is not satisfied with oneself! The most important thing is to live in the present! First, do the work at hand; when you have energy, set plans and goals for yourself and learn something new!
Yes, live in the present! But I’m not in the right state; it’s hard to do a good job, I lack energy, and it’s a vicious cycle. I’ve been irritable lately
But I have to catch up on my studies while working, and it never seems very systematic; I always end up missing something.
In school, it’s fine as long as you pass the exams. But at work it’s different – you have to use what you’ve learned in practice without any room for mistakes; therefore, working helps one to be more motivated and more meticulous
The original poster has deep insights into studying*. It is only at work that I realize there are still many things I lack. To complete my tasks better or to be more confident in handling this job, I feel even more motivated to learn. Learning is a lifelong endeavor.
Well, there are different purposes for learning; it comes down to the idea that learning is an endless process
Studying in school is only to lay a foundation for learning in your future work; there are many things in the workplace that you cannot learn while in school. If you develop methods of learning while at school, know how to learn in the workplace, have the motivation to do so, and combine theory with practice, then you will be able to learn faster
The original poster’s own experience, hehe. I need to make the most of my limited time at school. Rely on good luck
Studying at two different stages is, in fact, aimed at enhancing one’s own value! As long as vulnerabilities are identified, they should be addressed promptly, and progress should continue. The original poster is indeed a person with great ambition; it’s clear they’re dissatisfied with the current situation, haha!
The original poster is right; one of our classmates, who is almost 40 years old, is pursuing a PhD – that’s really impressive, as he has just invented a new substance! I can graduate successfully now!
Such people are truly remarkable and extremely resilient. Once you start working, you must make use of time to learn; otherwise, you will end up with a big gap compared to your colleagues. At school as well, one should make use of every moment to learn*, so as to be prepared for work. Use whatever is needed, right?
The more you learn, the more confused you become; it’s better not to learn at all! The more you do, the more mistakes you make; it’s better not to do it at all! The more you think about it, the more troubled you become; it’s better not to think about it at all! Life is becoming increasingly painful; keep going!
I think~~ one needs to keep learning throughout life in order to enrich and improve oneself! Most of the time, we study with specific goals in mind, but when there are no clear objectives, such as during leisure time outside of work, it is even more important to focus on improving one’s own character and qualities! Knowledge can never be too much, anyway! Isn’t it true that one regrets not having enough knowledge when it’s needed?
The learning in school is systematic, but many people don’t want to learn it. The learning at work is trivial, but it comes with high pressure and allows for fast learning! !
At school, I thought I was great at everything, but once I started working, I didn’t know anything
