Why to get more education?
|
First… Why should you care? Over and over, we have heard from our parents or at school the same story. Study hard. Get a good degree. With the good degree, a good job. Then, work hard. That’s the perfect receipt to be permanently frustrated about how little money you make, and how much money others make. No matter if you are an operator or a CEO. The money that you make out of selling your time never tastes fulfilling. If you care about that, you should continue your education until you die. Not more degrees necessarily. But just more experience. You need to expose yourself to new things. You need to learn new things. And why? Just to have more options. Knowing every day more and more about less and less is also following the path of slavery. You limit the companies you can work for. You limit the positions you can work on. And if you didn’t take care of your finances… You limit enormously the offers that you can accept for that job in that company.

Now that it’s time of elections… let’s talk about important meetings. Well… maybe you remember who was Schabowski. Some people leave a meeting with action items. Günter Schabowski left one with a border crisis. Berlin. 9 November 1989. Schabowski was giving a press conference about new travel rules for East Germans. He had received the document shortly beforehand. He hadn’t read it carefully. Excellent preparation… that I truly recommend for you. Then came a perfectly reasonable question:...
You probably know it. 1999 NASA lost the Mars Climate Orbiter. One team supplied data in English units. The other expected metric. The spacecraft travelled for nine months before the mistake became everybody’s problem. That is a very long journey to discover you needed one awkward conversation. Now, I’m not suggesting you’re about to lose a spacecraft. Your project or your job has its own ways of making you miserable. You sit in a meeting. Someone says, “The contractor has accepted that...
A few of you have complained that the prices of some courses in The Room have gone up. And that The Room itself costs more now. Yes. That’s true. Look. The feedback I keep getting is that I’m practically giving away 20 years of PPP experience for peanuts. So I’ve decided to make the peanuts slightly more expensive.
