Welcome to my blog !
It's true that learning never ends in life. From the first breath we take to the last breath we exhale, learning new things, clearing our misunderstandings, and rediscovering the truths are all part of the journey. The key to growth is the capacity to change, adapt, and tackle what we believe.
The process of unlearning and relearning is deeply rooted in our everyday lives and isn't restricted to certain situations. There was a time when I learned that something I had always believed to be true was actually incorrect. It was a real eye-opener for me.
I used to think that the most effective way to do tasks was to multitask. I had the impression that I could multitask and be quite productive. But my, was I mistaken! One day, with a project deadline approaching, I made the decision to multitask. I thought I was capable of handling everything.
But as soon as I began working on several projects at once, I saw that my attention was split and that I wasn't giving any of the tasks my all. I took longer than I had anticipated to finish everything because I made careless errors and overlooked crucial things. It was annoying!
I learned from that experience that multitasking does not genuinely result in higher productivity. As a matter of fact, it may make it more difficult for us to focus entirely on one subject and give it our whole attention. I've since learnt to set priorities for my work, concentrate on one issue at a time, and give it my all. Using this method has made me more productive and helped me generate work of higher quality.
I learned a vital lesson from that, which is that sometimes our perceptions of reality aren't always accurate. It's important to keep an open mind and be willing to reconsider what we're thinking. That's how we develop into better versions of ourselves, after all!
Another instance where I realized my beliefs were false was when I assumed that failure was always bad. Failure was something to be avoided at all costs and, in my opinion, a sign of weakness. However, I had an educated friend who shared their own experiences, and we had an insightful talk.
They emphasized that failure is a chance for learning and growth rather than a reflection of our value or ability. They informed me that some of the biggest successes in life come from setbacks and that we develop strength and important life lessons as a result of our failures.
My entire understanding of failure was altered by this conversation. I came to understand that it's acceptable to make mistakes and fail while exploring. It comes naturally to the process of learning.
I began to view failure as a stepping stone to achievement rather than letting it depress me.
I've grown more bold since then, open to trying new things and learning from my mistakes.
Every obstacle I've faced has helped me grow and taught me something worthwhile. It's incredible how much of a difference a small shift of perspective can make in our lives.
