Welcome to Get Motivated's Private Community

I recently learned how to cook properly at 35, and it's been a game-changer. I'm saving money, eating healthier, and actually enjoying my meals. It got me thinking about other skills I wish I'd picked up sooner. 

What's a skill you wish you had learned earlier in life? Something that's made a significant difference in your day-to-day living or overall happiness?

What life-changing skill do you wish you'd learned earlier?

Whenever I read any posts like - What should someone do in their early 20s or late 20s etc.? 
There is always this general advice of developing skills. Every 3 or 4 insta reel, develop skills.

What skills are being talked about here? Give some good examples as to what skills to develop over the 20s, 30s etc.

What skills do people keep saying to develop?

Suppose you could be very good, like, REALLY good at something that very few people could do, what do you imagine being?

It's okay for it to be unrealistic or unrelated to what you currently do.

For example, being an international snooker player 🤷🏻‍♂️ or mastery in woodwork specific to making storage/usable compartment based "russian dolls".

What's the wildest or absurdly normal thing can you think of?

If you could choose a mastery, what would it be?

Welcome to IT Company Discussion's Private Community

I have 7 years of experience in IT with Mobile technology especially iOS. But now I can see there is not a big, long run and easy adaptive market in future to stick with technology. People with 3-4 years of experience can do the same what I am doing now. Although I have Team build and project management skills also but those are another level of headache. I have some experience with back end Tecnologies also and I love technical work and problem solving things. So I want to know want to know what I need to start learning next which is in high demand and high in pay and what are the various steps to learn those things.
Some suggest AI, ML things some suggest Cloud Computing etc but nobody know what’s it way to grow with it. 

So I need your help with some brief short guidance  for what I need to learn next. I am open for It.

What's the most valuable skill you've learned in your career that wasn't taught in school?

What's one skill you wish you had developed earlier in your career?
How do you think it would have changed your career path?

Background:
I'll be moving to Gurgaon golf course extension road next year. I got blessed with a baby this july and he'll be 1 year old after we shift (right now in my tier 2 hometown - waiting for flat delivery).
I and wife are in comfortable engineering remote jobs (8+ yoe) and pre-tax family income is 70LPA.
I'll be financially independent within next 5-6 years of corporate grind. 

I want to homeschool my child (and any other child in future) because I hate schools and the kind of चोंचले they come packed with. Real learning is so less and on dramas.
The effort and money I'd spend sending my kid to decent school in that area would be way too lot if I think and compare with what I'd spend on homeschooling, but I've not planned it through yet. I don't know where to start.
I want to give my children core knowledge in a way they'd love. Knowledge that matters. Science, Maths engineering, finance, economics, geography etc. Language is something they'd learn along with that. History is something they'd learn with documentaries.
I've no plan to make them run in rat race of govt jobs where all this useless stuff if needed. Anything that can make them skillful, employable and moral matters to me.

How do I start? Any guidance? Any groups to join? Any experts? Someone already doing this with same mindset?

How to plan homeschooling my children

The number of times I've heard people say shit like 'traveling makes you grow as a person'. Someone please specify what this growth looks like because I've never experienced it.

I don't think traveling is life-changing. I think most people have a romanticized, cinema-like idea of traveling that has been exaggerated even more because of social media. 

It definitely is fun to go on a vacation. But in most cases, that's all it is -- a source of entertainment. Maybe an ice-breaker the next time you go to some pretentious party. 

Am I missing something?

Is travelling overrated?

It depends how & where u travel.  
  
 I will put a quick example - Someone close to me always assumed ki roads usually breakdown in monsoons because it is normal in india. Once they traveled abroad and to a tropical island where rains are very common. After seeing the roads there, first comment was - “Roads don’t break always due to rains”. So, this was a life long learning for that human, broke the mirage of road quality and execution in India.  
  
 Similarly, once I went to a 3-days long trek with a friend to inner jungles of SEAsia. We had to carry drinking water with us & took bath in flowing river. If you have seen “Iss jungle se mujhe bachao” (desi version of fear factor) was shot there. This friend of mine after landing back made a statement “yaar jisne bhi shower invent kiya hai, it’s a big gift”. Takeaway from this travel was - He was able to appreciate the simplest thing which we take for granted.  
  
 Many people learn new things about culture, practices of a new place. My personal surprise was when I traveled to Bali and saw similarities between theirs n ours practices. Helped me to go back n read about various things of empires.  
  
 Multiple such stories, so yeah, it depends!

Skills for people in 20s

Is it too late to start learning a musical instrument after the age of 30? Many of us have had the desire to play and enjoy music for a long time, but it never happened. Life's demands and priorities often took precedence.

Now, I'm considering dedicating some time each day to learn and not necessarily become an expert, but simply enjoy the process. If there are any musicians here, could you suggest which instrument is easier to pick up? I'm thinking about a keyboard or piano. Also, is it feasible to self-learn by watching YouTube videos or taking online courses?
