Are those long self-improvement lists on LinkedIn valuable?
On LinkedIn and other platforms, you often see lists filled with amazing advice or thought-provoking ideas. They come in titles like: “20 Lessons for My Younger Self,” “14 Habits of High Performers,” or “12 Behaviors of People with High Emotional IQ.” Reading them, you might think, “Wow, this is great advice, I should remember it.” But then, you keep scrolling, and the advice is forgotten. These posts or videos are perfect for clicks, likes, and engagement.

The Value of Studying Engineering
My thoughts on the value of studying engineering.
I often reflect on how my engineering studies don’t directly relate to the work I do now. Was it worth studying engineering even if I now work in IT? While engineering skills are transferable to to other fields, it raises a deeper question: Should education only prepare us for a certain profession? It is an interesting question with societal implications, but exploring it would require an entire essay. Maybe one day I’ll take the time to synthesize my thoughts on this subject in a coherent piece.
