I never wanted to learn to drive, but I'm glad I did. It's taught me to think logically, make quick decisions and solve problems. 🚗 This time 13 years ago, I was embroiled in a debate with my dad about whether I'd learn to drive or not. He told me I had no choice and that my first lesson was Monday after college 🤣. I'm actually quite grateful to my 17 year old self for learning too. Living where I live now, I couldn't be without a car. It's no secret that being able to drive opens up your social and employment mobility too. The only time I was ever without a car was when I worked in America for 3 months, and I had to rely on the other workers... A LOT. It's not just the ability to drive though. It's the confidence that comes with it. Living rural gets you used to a different kind of traffic, one I much prefer to busy motorways or A roads. From winding roads to tight country lanes, I can confidently reverse down a track to let a tractor or horsebox pass. There's normally no hurry either. However, there is a skill to driving on roads where potholes are rarely filled and hedges are overgrown. If you're a good driver, you're a logical thinker, problem solver and quick to react. You plan ahead, know alternative routes and where to break along the way. If you're a bad driver, well... let's leave that there 😂 . #softskills

"Anybody who pulls his erudition or education on you hasn’t any." - Ernest Hemingway Hemingway is probably speaking about Mount Stupid in education. I distinctly remember going through "Dunning-Kruger" when I learnt driving. Of course, I could relate only after Mount Stupid had passed. In my first drives without driving trainer (i.e with a license), my speeds went high pretty early. Subsequently, analysis of the little incidents / near misses progressively told me about the risks I was taking, the checks I was missing..and speeds kept going down. A senior colleague, who was my pool partner at the time and already had 10+ years of driving experience, predicted this nicely while replying to my question: "Why do you drive this cautiously when you have better skills?" Looking back, I can only thank the good luck that the major risks and misfortune did not arrive hand in hand during those first few months, when I was not fully ready to handle them. At Mount Stupid, we are like that 2 year old child who does not have fear of walking on the parapet of a high rise. It was not courage, because courage applies when you are fully aware of what you stand to lose and yet choose it. It was..stupidity, as the curve says it. I hope this share helps new drivers and bike riders to correct their driving outlook early enough. To end with the original quote: I certainly agree with Hemingway. That quote obviously applies to education and learning. Our knowledge has failed every time we set bragging as its purpose. #Quotes #Safety #Traffic

🚗 Embracing the Journey of Learning to Drive 🚦 Recently, I embarked on a new adventure at a driving school to learn how to drive. Excitement and nervousness filled me as I faced my very first driving experience. The school provided limited classes, emphasizing the need for self-practice to excel. Seeking extra practice, I approached a colleague who agreed to let me practice with his car. Initially, things went smoothly as we practiced in empty parking lots. However, during one session, I unintentionally hit his car against the curb, not once, but twice. I felt terrible and doubted my ability to become a competent driver. Shared my concerns with my driving school instructor that I recounted the mishap with my colleague. Rather than focusing on my mistakes, he encouraged me to believe in myself and stay confident. He patiently guided me, pointing out -where i was doing wrong, -what i was doing good, -what was better than before. With each practice session under his guidance, I noticed myself improving day by day. The journey wasn't without its bumps, but I learned an invaluable lesson of never give up. moral of this short story is if you are stuck somewhere or feel like you are failing or you can't do it, look at 🔍 Areas of improvement 🎯 Goals to work towards 👏 Progress to acknowledge Believe in yourself and stay determined, you'll surprise yourself with how far you can go. 🌟 #NeverGiveUp #SelfImprovement #BelieveInYourself #Mondaymotivation

GRE and SAT Verbal Trainer | Expert in Test Prep | Language trainer | Soft skills | Freelance | Communicator | Social empath
Why has conventional educational system failed ? I am sure all of us have experienced the drawbacks firsthand .To illustrate this point, let's examine an example Imagine a driving school where a student enrolls to learn how to drive. On the first day, they’re introduced to what a car is and its basic functions. Over the next few days, they delve into the details: price ranges, types of cars, and the mechanics behind how they work. Eventually, there’s a written exam, and upon passing with flying colors, the student is declared ready to drive. However, when it comes time to actually apply this knowledge on the road, the sessions have already ended. The student is left on their own to figure out how to navigate traffic, handle different road conditions, and respond to real-life driving scenarios. In India's education system, students spend years mastering facts and passing exams. But just like learning to drive only from a textbook, they often feel unprepared emotionally and practically for life's real challenges. This disconnect leaves them yearning for more guidance and support in navigating the complexities beyond the classroom.. #conventionaleducation #failed #educationsystem #timetochange #morepracticality #indianeducation

Ever wondered about the career path of a commercial truck driver? It’s a journey of endurance, skill, and constant learning. Here’s a glimpse into the average career of those who keep our economy moving: 🚀 Starting Point - Getting Licensed: It all begins with obtaining a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL). Training and passing the required tests are the first milestones. 🌱 Early Career - Gaining Experience: New drivers often start with shorter routes. This period is crucial for honing skills, understanding regulations, and adapting to life on the road. 📈 Mid-Career - Moving Up: With experience comes opportunities for longer, more lucrative hauls. Many drivers also specialize in certain types of cargo or routes during this stage. 🧭 Seasoned Pro - Mastery and Independence: Veteran drivers might become owner-operators, owning their trucks and running their businesses, or they might take on roles as trainers or route planners. 🔄 Continual Learning: Regulations and technologies are always evolving, so continuous learning is a part of the job, ensuring safety and efficiency. 💪 Retirement Planning: Smart financial planning is key, as the physical demands of the job can lead to an earlier retirement age compared to other professions. A career in commercial trucking isn’t just a job; it’s a lifestyle that demands dedication but offers freedom and the chance to see the country unlike any other profession. If you’re a truck driver, what has your career journey looked like? Share your stories! 🚚🛤️ #RoadWarriors #TransportationIndustry

🚀【Excited to share, Day 23 #365care #everythingisPossible #courage #hardword #consistent 🌟Day 23 of Learning Journey: The Law of Total Probability** 🌟 📚What I Learned Today: The Law of Total Probability is a fundamental rule in probability theory that helps in calculating the total probability of an event based on different conditions or scenarios. 🔍Key Concepts: - It states that if you have multiple ways for an event to occur, you can sum the probabilities of each way to find the total probability. - Mathematically, if \( B_1, B_2, \ldots, B_n \) are mutually exclusive events that cover all possibilities, and \( A \) is an event, then: \[ P(A) = P(A|B_1)P(B_1) + P(A|B_2)P(B_2) + \cdots + P(A|B_n)P(B_n) \] 🔗Real-Life Example: - Scenario: Calculating the probability of someone being late to a meeting. - Conditions: Different modes of transport (🚗 Car, 🚆 Train, 🚴 Bicycle). Application: Probability of being late given they take a car. Probability of being late given they take a train. Probability of being late given they take a bicycle. Total probability combines all these conditional probabilities based on the likelihood of choosing each mode of transport. 🔄Putting it All Together: For example: Late if by car: \( P(L|C) = 0.3 \) Late if by train: \( P(L|T) = 0.1 \) Late if by bicycle: \( P(L|B) = 0.05 \) And the probabilities of choosing each transport: Choosing car: \( P(C) = 0.5 \) Choosing train: \( P(T) = 0.3 \) Choosing bicycle: \( P(B) = 0.2 \)Total probability of being late: \[ P(L) = (0.3 \times 0.5) + (0.1 \times 0.3) + (0.05 \times 0.2) = 0.15 + 0.03 + 0.01 = 0.19 \] ✅Takeaway: The Law of Total Probability is a powerful tool to understand complex scenarios by breaking them down into manageable parts.

ICF Certified Life Coach and Corporate Thought Leader dedicated to empowering individuals for success — LEADERSHIP COACHING — PEOPLE EMPOWERMENT — PERFORMANCE BOOSTING — CHANGE MANAGEMENT
🚗 Do you have license to fly limitless? 🚀 Getting my driving license was a very-long journey. While completing with tests and exhaustion, a profound realization struck me. It's not just about having a license; it's about knowing how to drive. Similarly, having skills and certifications is essential, but so is knowing how to utilize them effectively. Imagine having a license but lacking the skills to maneuver the vehicle. It's wasted potential. Conversely, knowing how to drive without a license poses its own limitations and risks. Likewise, possessing skills and certifications without putting them to use to earn a meaningful livelihood is drive to having a car but never taking it for a spin. To thrive in life, we need both: the credentials and the know-how. It's the synergy between possessing the right tools and knowing how to use them that propels us forward on the road to success. So, let's not just collect licenses and certifications; let's ensure we have the skills and knowledge to make the most of them. After all, it's the combination of both that opens the doors to limitless opportunities. #LicenseToThrive #SkillsAndCertifications #RoadToSuccess #CoachTandeep

I spent 5 years working towards getting my driver's licence 😬🚗 But it taught me a thing or two about resilience. Buckle up, it's a wild ride... 👇 🛑 2018: Spent 6 months learning to drive before I was accepted into uni, where I couldn't afford to continue lessons 🛑 2019: Similar story... 🛑 2020: Lockdown came and went, and just as I was starting up lessons in October of that year (with a not-so-great instructor) lockdown 2.0 put a stop to that too 🥴 🛑 2021: Lingering pandemic aftereffects + overwhelming demand for driving instructors = another year without lessons 🛑 2022: I was finally able to have continuous lessons, which I persevered through (even after being in a car accident that completely knocked my confidence...) 🟢 And 2023: After hours travelling back and forth on the train for lessons, practicing with my partner and huge learning curves... I passed my driving test! 🎉 There were so many times where I thought about completely giving up, saving my money and accepting that this just wouldn't happen for me. But I kept going, reminding myself that the end result would all be worth it. (Which it was!) If the experience taught me anything, it's that having a positive attitude and level head can make all the difference in how you approach life's challenges 💪 #Resilience #SkillsDevelopment #Achievement #TVProduction
