10 Lessons School Never Teaches You about Life

“Education is what remains after one has forgotten what one has learned in school.”

過去形

Did you ever hear this kind of famous quote from Albert Einstein?

That one of history's greatest geniuses would suggest

that what you learned in school might not actually be the most important thing?

But, considering how smart he was, I'm willing to believe

Knowing the functions of stomata might be essential in appreciating some aspects of

climate change, or if you're gunning for a career

But this knowledge definitely won't help you file your taxes, something

that most of us, for whatever reason, are never taught

And no, I've never heard of the IRS cutting anybody any slack because they simply

So, what are some important life lessons that you're not going to get in school?

What do you have to learn through actual experience, that

you can't just copy down off a chalkboard?

In Today's video, we're going to explore just that, so those of you still in school

get a better picture of what the real world is like, and

those of you already finished with school can brush up

Perspective Is Key We usually look at life from a single point

of view, and school doesn't do much to change that.

In school, you learn that Hitler was a really bad guy, and everything he stands for should

If he won the war, the world would be a very dark place right now.

Now, that's definitely true, but the Allies did some nasty

things as well, While we often think of them as the

good guys, they were the first side to ever use nuclear weapons, which has influenced

I'm not arguing that the Axis was good and the Allies were bad, though.

The point is, in school, we don't always get to explore the other

side of the coin, because we're quite often only shown

In real life though, where you have to juggle friendships, work, and romantic

relationships, it's important to be able to understand things from all sides, not just

Let's say your boyfriend didn't show up for a date?

But you should also realize that there might have

been a very good reason for that, and hearing his

side of the story first might help you feel a little less upset.

There are going to be times in life where your side of things is truly the most important

for your own development and happiness, but if you

can take other people's side of things into account,

and have an open and honest dialogue with them about how to meet your needs and theirs,

things will go a lot more smoothly, and you'll end

Not Everything is About You Have you ever had to sit through a conversation

with someone who cannot stop talking about themselves?

I'll bet it made you want to grab them by the shoulders and say "LISTEN!

We've all been around people who don't understand that everything isn't about them

all the time, and we can probably agree they don't

make very good company, whether you're at dinner, a party, or just trying to unwind

Because we're living life looking out from our own two eyes, it often feels like everything

But think about this, that experience is true for everyone

If your partner is in a foul mood you can't understand, don't immediately

jump to the conclusion that it must have something to do with you.

Maybe her boss made a swipe about her performance at work and it

Of course, sometimes people's bad moods will have something to do with you,

but don't make the mistake of thinking this is always

The egocentric bias is a state of overthinking everything, because you think everything is

Psychologists argue that we think like this because we are attempting to give our lives

a coherent narrative, where everything happens for a reason around us.

But this kind of thinking will take you down a rabbit hole, where you think every word

said around you is about you, and every time you

walk into a room, the attention is on you.

This is not healthy, and force you to package yourself

into a more acceptable person, when really, most

of what's going on is solely inside your own head.

If you suffer from egocentric bias, try this: for a couple of days, do something radically

For example, if you are the kind of person who is usually the loudest in a room, be

On the first day, a couple of people will notice and ask you why you are undergoing

After a while though, no one will even notice that you used to be

loud, because they're too preoccupied with their own lives, and what other people think

Everyone has their own issues to worry about.

Try to avoid thinking of yourself as the biggest issue other people have in life.

So, now that we've taken all the attention off you for a second, let's get into another

Good Friends Are Very Important There is nothing as valuable as good friends.

This is yet another lesson that you probably won't

learn while trying to have the best grades in the class.
