Which are the lessons you had to learn by yourself? And why was it hard for you to take advice on it?
I recently learned about the concept of “unteachable lessons”, i understand it means that people cant teach some things through advice, because people have to experience it themselves in order to learn.
For me, it was that i had to secure my future with a well paid career, do internships, and work for an international company. I was naive and thought i could make it on human rights, only to learn i wasted my time because that is for people with rich parents who can afford to work without pay for years before they land a job in that field. I has the bias that, i’ll be the exception rather than tue norm, and unemployment wouldnt happen to me and i could get a job by own. Wich now sounds dumb. (Also, i know that you can do “the right path” and still have a hard time to get hired, but it is true you can help yourself doing the “right thing”)
