Build, Don’t Talk

Things You Wish You Were Taught in School

Raj Shamani

School taught us specific subjects, like maths and history.

But we weren’t taught:

How to sell

Or how to build relationships

Or how to negotiate

Or how to take care of our mental health

Or how to network

Or how to deal with personal finance

These most important situations we face as adults were never discussed with us when we were students. We weren’t taught these skills in school, and this makes all the success stories we hear about seem out of reach; it makes us feel dumb. We aren’t dumb, we just don’t know how to work the system.
