3 Things They Aren’t Teaching You At School!
Read part 1 here.

1. Critical Thinking!
Thinking, being able to think on your own, and communicating your opinion whether that is through paper( writing) or verbally( speaking) is VERY important. I would say it’s at least in the top 3 skills you need in life( if we were to make a list)!
If you can think you are absolutely dangerous ( quote by: Jordan Peterson). This is why I say we need to teach children how to think in school. Before they learn anything, you must tell them why they are doing that.
We also NEED a class where you only solve problems, where you do your own research( on a topic of choice), where you debate with people, etc.
2. Long-Term Planning!
One problem I’ve seen a lot when I entered adulthood and started self-improvement, is the lack of discipline and long-term planning. A lot of people( and I mean a LOT) just spend their money and life savings on things they don’t care deeply about. And they do this so that they impress people they don’t even know.
A lot of people also partake in short-term pleasures which is a movie I’ve seen since elementary school, and it never works out!
Please for the love of what’s Holy in this world, have a long-term goal, and plan. Please think and plan for the future. You won’t regret it.
3. How To Talk To People!
I’ve written a blog about this before( you can read it here). What I’m trying to say here is that a lot of people don’t know how to communicate their feelings/needs. If they do they are most likely wrongly interpreted.
Communication is( in my opinion) the most important skill in life. If you master it, you can get anything you want. A lot of opportunities are opened. That’s why we MUST teach it in schools.
