Learning Time Constraints

There are many things competing for people's time and attention. Why should I learn this is a valid question when you have several dozen other potential things you're looking at learning.

Most definitely. The one thing I try to be constantly aware of is whether I'm trying to learn too much at the same time, and whether what I'm learning is applicable to what I'm trying to achieve. Occasionally, I'll reward myself with something else that I'm interested in that isn't "pragmatic" per se. All about finding your personal happy balance between learning something applicable vs satisfying that insatiable curiosity .

no, don't do this. you have limited time focus what you learn just like everything else

I don't understand this article. I learn as much as I have time to learn while still getting all my work done. I'm constantly trying new things and developing my expertise on a number of topics that I don't currently consider myself an expert in. It seems like other people are doing this too so what's the issue?

Learning and training are not hobbies, it's something that many people don't have time to because they're overworked. If someone takes 10% of their work time to learn, at the end of a year they had the opportunity to learn a lot. If you just learn barely enough to finish your task, yoi never get deep knowledge about something - that's how I often feel.

Learn how to stay curious. Don't spend your time on learning things you will learn at work.

AI lets you choose what you want to learn versus delegate. You don't have time to become great at everything.

Unfortunately there's not enough time to learn everything I want to learn.

25 and no time to learn something new? You're doing life wrong.

at one point you had to work hard to learn the things that you did, no chance you're a seasoned expert working 5 minutes per day
