Enemies & Friends in Learning

Enemies in Learning:

  1. Craving/Blind Learning: It's important to differentiate between a genuine desire to learn and the impulse to learn just because someone else did or an organization is offering it. Understanding your personal needs and how the learning fits into your life is crucial.
  2. Aversion: Being too fixated on specific skills or sources of knowledge might limit your exposure to other valuable opportunities. Embrace a diverse range of learning resources such as blogs, podcasts, projects, and interactions with different people.
  3. Agitation & Worry: Frustration from not acquiring desired knowledge can lead to anxiety about one's career or personal progress. Realize that learning isn't solely about accumulating certificates or attending programs; it's also about implementation and finding what works for you.
  4. Doubt and Uncertainty: Self-doubt can hold you back from exploring new avenues of learning. Trust in your ability to gain something from any learning experience, even if it's understanding why a particular approach didn't work for you.
  5. Dependency: Waiting for the perfect conditions or external validation to start learning can hinder progress. Take ownership of your learning journey, as it requires discipline and commitment.

Friends in Learning:

  1. Faith: Trust in yourself, the learning content, the process, and the facilitator. Focus on learning rather than judging the resources involved.
  2. Effort: Learning demands dedication. Stay focused and committed, minimizing distractions to give your best effort.
  3. Awareness: Being aware of your surroundings and inner self can expedite the learning process. Understand the time needed for learning and recognize that consistent practice yields results.
  4. Concentration: Stay focused on your learning objectives and remain present during the learning process. Avoid getting caught up in future outcomes that haven't occurred yet.

Remember, learning is a continuous journey that requires patience, perseverance, and an open mind. Embrace the process, stay adaptable, and be willing to evolve as you acquire new knowledge and skills.

Very well sais Harish, learning a lifelong process, a marathon, and unless applied, it's just entertainment.

Well-written Harish Kumar. Most apt was the fact that one must not wait for “perfect conditions” to start learning something, which most of the tendency to do!!
