Learning, Experience, and Personal Growth

Assalamualaikum…

Learning. What is learning? Is it essential for us? Is it a need or just a step to reach a higher place? Why do people who didn’t learn to the fullest still manage to reach higher levels?

The question isn’t about why. It’s about you, yourself. Because everything is always about yourself. The choice between learning or gaining experience—still the same. Why? Because to gain experience, you still need to learn. Just in a different way. The difference is the experience you gain. This is what makes you special.

We always try to avoid learning. But somehow, no matter how hard we avoid it, at the end of the day, we still need to learn. Learn from hardship, and you’ll be better in the future. InsyaAllah.

"Bila kamu tak tahan lelahnya belajar, maka kamu akan menanggung peritnya kebodohan."
— Imam Syafie
