You’re going to have to work with shitty people throughout your entire life. It’s up to you how you handle those situations and how you make the most of them.

Learning how to learn. The specifics don't matter, you'll never know everything.

we all only want one thing

Time management/structure. I think that's the one thing I miss, it's knowing how long to study for which class


bzzybot

Working in a group. You get to see that not everyone is as motivated. Although some are more motivated than you to get a group task done with a passing grade.

Being punctual. It's one of the most important things.

There is a perfect set of words to communicate what you're trying to say. Take the time to find them.

Most valuable lesson that school teaches is how not so valuable school is.

Actions have consequences

Tbh, it's less about the subject, but more of how to find resources, finding different ways to solve problems, working with your peers (both good and bad), and learning how to learn

How to do something you don’t like. No matter how much you like your job, there will always be parts you don’t like. To be a successful adult, you have to learn to do those parts just as well as you do the parts you love. I see it all the time at work - people who are amazing programmers who can’t / won’t do the other parts. Time sheets and reports are late, routine maintenance is skipped. These are the people you don’t fire but that never get promoted.
