Was trying to teach my child the importance of learning. I must not forget to not to take fun away from learning.
I wished someone would tell me this when I was younger. So that I wouldn't just go through the motion to learn for the sake of passing exams. So that I wouldn't limit myself to the things that I can learn which I feel resulted in my losing my passion in pursuit of good examination results. In the past, being a good student, I always felt that I cannot spare time to learn anything else because I was not exactly a bright student. I was just hardworking. I had to devote whatever time I have to my studies. During my university days, I have got classmates looking at stocks, free-lancing in software development etc. I thought nothing of those. Ok, perhaps for a start, due to stigma, I shunned away from stocks and investments. The point is, I should have done something more fun!
