I was a spicy meatball before social media even existed.

It's why it took me 7 years to complete the last 30% of my two degrees. I got bored and went and worked full time in heavy industry. Pretty sure I had adhd well before I even started uni. Fairly sure I was born with it rather than it being a learned condition.

Also Im not sure if the shortest path through school is the goal either. I'm in my late 30s now and I still learn new things every day and still regularly consume education materials every week. I don't ever plan to stop. How arrogant must you be to think you should stop learning once school is over? Hell I've learnt stuff post school that other students learnt in school. I studied business they studied science.

I've done a huge amount of learning in trades and honestly 60 second videos have taught me over a few cumulative hours as many tricks as a decade in construction has.

On the job you only learn what your exposed to and what the people around you know. 60 second videos from anyone anywhere can literally teach me anything because it's not limited to just who I am able to be exposed to now in this minute today.

Hell I've learnt skills from shorts fellas who have spent decades in industries haven't learnt. Stuff that's valuable and saves time. It's all about exposure. Expose yourself to more, learn more. Lectures are slow and exposure is limited when it's just you and whoever the education source deemed suitable to be your teacher.
