Learning from others talks, experiences, and advice is the most effective way to learn. I love listening to older people speak about their past life experiences and what they learned from them. I know that by taking the time to listen to others, I can truly gain some knowledge. Just because someone doesn't have the same degree and educational background that you have, does not mean they are not smart. Everyone has to be educated in different fields. Someone needs to know how to perform surgery, teach students, and manage companies; not one person can do all of these things.
Neither of my parents attended a university after high school, so I am a first generation college student. Although my father did not attend college I have learned the most from him. I worked for my dad's company my first summer after high school. I worked as an office manager where I learned a lot about the business industry. My dad has had a lot of personal experiences that he was able to gain knowledge from and share them with me.
