There are two big ways to learn:

Active learning: Someone tells you what to learn, how to
learn it, on a set schedule, on pre-selected standardized topics.

Passive learning: You let your mind wander with no
intended destination. You read and learn broadly, talk to people
from various backgrounds, and stumble haphazardly across topics
you had never considered but spark your curiosity, often because
it’s the topic you happen to need at that specific time of your
life.

I can’t be alone in realizing that most of what I’ve learned in
life has come from passive learning.
