In life, humans do it themselves, constantly explore, practice, and fight, and learn a lot of survival and life skills, which is called "experiential" learning.
If you pay attention to observing your life, you will find animals, plants, and even inanimate substances. The way they convey information depends on silent instruction and there is no need to talk endlessly. Talking and talking are just the main teaching methods of school education.
So, in his learning pyramid theory, Edgar Dell told us: practice, simulation or presentation is the best way to learn, and reading and lectures are the worst way to learn. However, we all know that most schools teach in the form of reading and lectures.
According to traditional school education, students leave school and their learning career is over. In fact, in school, most of the students learn knowledge and technical education. But when you leave campus and in the open university of life, you find that learning is just the beginning, and you have to learn a lot of life knowledge and survival skills. Otherwise, you will be unable to move forward in life. Most of the time, life is pushing us to talk to us.
When you learn the course of life, you will be at ease in doing anything.
If you don’t learn it, life will still push you. A very few seized the opportunity, discovered the opportunities given to them through trial and error, and then mastered the skills of survival.
Most people are changing because of their life, complaining about life, and venting their resentment on their bosses and lovers. They lose the opportunity given to them by life, succumb to life, dare not take risks, are afraid of losing, and are afraid of competition. When the "millennial" robots replaced millions of workers and college education could not guarantee a job, some people pessimistically believe that school education is useless in the real world, and spreading knowledge and reading, and then slowly grow old in a state of worrying about gains and losses and being petty, and finally die of regret in boredom.
Rich Dad continued: "If you are the kind of person who has no courage, every time life pushes you, you will choose to give up. If you are such a person, your life will be stable, don't do wrong things, save yourself when something happens, and then slowly grow old and die in boredom. You will have many friends who like you very much because you are really a good person who works hard. But the fact is that you surrender to life and dare not take risks. You do want to win, but the fear of failure exceeds the excitement of success. Only you know that deep down in your heart, you always think that you cannot win, so you choose stability."

Life is the best education. Leaving school is the starting point of learning, not the end point.
School education is important, he said, but for most people, the sad thing is that leaving school is the end point of learning, not the starting point. The most important thing for children is to learn to think with emotions, rather than thinking with emotions. They must learn to choose their ideas.
Parents tell their children to pay attention to ways to make money: "If you can see an opportunity, you are destined to continue to discover opportunities in your life."
In "Rich Dad Poor Dad", Kiyosaki and his good friend Mike followed the advice of the rich dad. Soon they discovered an opportunity to start a reading room. As long as the child buys a ticket, he can watch two hours of comic strips in the reading room - those comic strips that cannot be sold and should have been thrown away by convenience stores.
They made a lot of money and had good business for three consecutive months until a fight caused the reading room to close. But they learned the first lesson of letting money work for them, and even if they aren't there, money will work for them. They plan to learn more deeply, and the rich dad plans to continue teaching them.

It is easy to change yourself, it is difficult to change others
In life, most people think that everyone in the world can change except yourself. In the book "Rich Dad Poor Dad", Rich Dad tells you that changing yourself is easier than changing others. Because this world is uncertain, disordered, and chaotic, we cannot grasp this world. We can only grasp and control ourselves.
Learning truth and wisdom is to work hard to transform and control yourself, and promote yourself to change and create the world. Otherwise, trying to change others and trying to solve all problems will become futile, or make life a mess or mess.
" Issues " is a philosophical book about change. It says: "If you are poor, you will change; if you change, you will be proficient; if you are proficient, you will be proficient."
When you have anxiety, confusion, or disaster in your life, don’t blame others, don’t think that the world is unfair to you, the only thing you change is to find the root cause and solution to the problem, or try to improve your way of thinking, achieve financial freedom, get rid of the troubles and shackles of various problems, and solve it yourself.
