I grew up in a strict household and the focus was on getting excellent grades and when I couldn't do it, then I felt like a complete failure. I kept moving on from skill to skill as I never felt I was good enough.
I later on realised that I cannot learn in a classroom setting and I'm more of a hands on person. I learn by doing myself. That's why I became a chef, learnt music and dancing.
Currently learning Forex and stocks by doing.
