Learn from Others’ Mistakes: How to Avoid Failure and Find Your Own Path After High School

Before the college entrance exam, life is like shooting at stationary targets—the where and how of it are all known.
You just study hard, and you genuinely keep improving every day.
That changes the moment after the exam.
So many things become uncertain. Some choices that seemed right at the time turn out to be dead ends twenty years later.
Others that felt like mistakes turn out to be inspired strokes of luck.
That’s why university professors often tell their students: the top performers in college don’t always stand out once they enter the real world.
More likely, it’s the students who ranked lower in class who end up succeeding.
Why?
Because the moment you step into society, you immediately face a state of having no goal, no method, and no standard.#ReadingNotes#
No one can guarantee after high school that doing something a certain way will definitely work—but you should understand how others fail step by step. If you want to avoid failure, don’t repeat theirs.
The losses others suffer are lessons you gain. Learn from their failures, and carve your own path.
