It's life. Whole world is a learning place. No teachers and no syllabi. Its up to you to chose your subject of your liking and gain proficiency in order to get a lucrative job. Otherwise you will remain unemployed
Fully agree with that, unless you are ready for it, nothing gets absorbed.It is the same with students - parents ask them to sit with the books for hours together without making sure whether it is actually benefiting them.
We can learn lessons from ourselves.no one can help us to learn lessons of life.when we get success we know our way of success and when failure we learn different things.So it is we who can be our own teacher.
