The most important things in life are never taught

Some of the most important things in life are never taught. 

No one will teach us how to spend our vacation time. There’s no college class on how to have a restful Sunday. High schools don’t teach personal finance or taxes or time management. 

All of these things we must learn on our own through trial and error. The things that create a good life are completely up to us. 

So maybe you’re allergic to self-development. Maybe you hate podcasts. Maybe the idea of learning outside of school is foreign to you. It shouldn’t be this way. Because if you try to get by with only the things that were taught to you, your life will be limited to specific, measurable outcomes.

All of the best things in life, you must teach yourself.
