※ 引述《obiter (加油)》之銘言: : I'm just bored out of my mind right now... : I think studying can really drive a person crazy... Not literally of course, : but just getting really frustrated and bored ~_~ : Had a discussion yesterday about the differences between studying and working. : Assuming that you are an excellent and diligent student studying a : rather difficult course, and a person working in a demanding job that has long : hours. : Which is better? : Would you rather be the hard-working student, : or the hard-working employee? : Of course, people always say that being a student is the best time of your : life. But then, with the assumptions above, you know, almost subconsciously, : that there will always been something to do, some textbook to read, some : extra notes to tidy up. In other words, the potential studying that you could : do is almost limitless. : Funny thing is, just about all students understand the concept of dimilishing : returns when it comes to studying. The more you study, the less extra benefit I am not disagreeing on your words, but...if you mentioned diminishing returns you remind me of something like economies of scale and scope~ maybe the more you learn or think , the easier you do. maybe the broader knowledge you have, the better your study or work.. I also frequently think some learning is too redundant.. and learning selectively something relevant is what i'm trying however...what's relevant...? Ihave no choice but to judge by myself. as for work, I just can hope what I do is good for it... -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.112.25.208
