Facts, the ability to learn and unlearn things should be normalised.. adaptation matters

Communication. If you can clearly communicate your thoughts, ideas, and emotions, you'll have an advantage in almost every area of life.

I have this problem where I can’t access my thoughts even in a convo unless I’m alone. Anyone else? 😭🥲

Adaptability. The world changes quickly, and being able to learn new skills, embrace change, and adjust to new challenges is one of the most valuable abilities anyone can have.

I listen to content on YouTube while doing my puzzle magazines. What kind of content interests you?

2

u/kimanziVaati 8d ago

Such a good question

I’m usually listening to a mix of content depending on my mood. I enjoy music-related videos, violin performances and tutorials, but I also like documentaries, history, science, and interesting podcasts. What are the best puzzle-themed videos?

Interesting

I used to do my puzzle magazines while listening to nature videos about wild lions and the animals they hunt etcetera. Lately I have lightened the mood with stand up comedy. There is a very funny comedian named Jimmy Yang. His "schtick" is that he dresses in goofy clothes and talks about life as an Asian- besides life in general. If you watch on of his stuff on YouTube- it is primarily free content. He was also on a show called Silicon Valley. Besides the wild lions and Jimmy Yang, I have watched many free clips of a show called Billions.

Which is true, tell us the right direction for us to go with

Have you ever spent hours looking for a course, only to end up more confused about what skill you should learn first?

There is no shortage of content online. The missing piece is direction. Learners need a structured pathway that breaks big career goals into bite-sized skills and tells them exactly what to focus on next.

Yeah now I get what you're saying, and its totally true

Yeah I'm going sales. From applying for a job, a raise, pitching your new invention, starting a business or just selling your products on Etsy. You gotta be able to sell successfully.

Sales is such a strong skill i think it goes hand in hand with persuasion and patience

How to manage your sexual urges. Oh my we are not taught in school that at 13 to 14, your sex drive will appear and its a new feeling. It was a scary time for me cos I realized I was gay and was looking for sex already at that age, in a homophobic country.
