Reading Watching Something

Information is everywhere today. You can search for anything on Google. You can find tremendous thoughts expressed via Facebook or Twitter. In such a world, it's important to think with your head and have your view . The problem is that you sometimes accept someone else's view without deep thought. In that case, "your view " may not be yours . The Brothers Karamazov , a famous literary work by Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky, gives us hints of how to have our own view .

A view is what a person thinks based on what the person experienced in their life and the knowledge they have. If you have a view and you can explain why you can say that in your words, the view is your view . On the other hand, "your view " is not yours if you can't explain why....

Many of us have goals that we're working towards. Each of our journeys is a long process, whether getting fit, learning a new skill, or pursuing a career change. Sometimes it's so long that we can't believe we will reach our destination someday. Also, our growth is often slow and hard to see. So, awareness of our small growth is essential to achieve our goals. There are three reasons why we need a sense of small growth: It clarifies what to do next It helps us reach our destinations faster It keeps us motivated We will see these three factors one by one in this post.

I pursue my life with purpose. That's why I learn. I'm happy if I can help you live your life with meaning. That's why I share what I've learned. In this post, I'll tell you how I decided to start blogging. Although this is my story, I believe you can take something from it, especially if: You like learning but aren't sure it's helping you. You learn hard but can't say why you do that. You've got tired of learning. So let's get started. Photo by Kaitlyn Baker on Unsplash What I did before starting a blog I'm a software engineer.

So I thought it seemed one of the perfect options to me. I was looking forward to tracking chall...

What processes do we need in learning? Input, output, and feedback. We can't skip the input process because we won't gain knowledge without it. Yet I'd like to highlight the others: output and feedback. We should put a higher weight on the output process to get feedback. I learned from Sion Kabasawa's book about the importance of the output process and my experience. I'll tell you the importance of output and feedback in this post. Photo by Austin Distel on Unsplash Why isn't input alone enough? I was overweight with inputted information. Before reading Kabasawa's book, I regarded learning as the input process.

I was satisfied with the number of books...
