Attitude towards learning

Something that I learnt from taiji practices. To learn something, first, you must not be content with what you have. You must always realise that you are not as good yet, that there is still room for improvement. And you must then work towards improving.

Also, to improve, you must be willing to ask questions. You must be willing to accept feedback. Sometimes, feedback may not come from your teacher or senior, it can come from someone more junior too. But feedback is feedback, it helps you improve no matter who it comes from. And when you get feedback, you need to work to improve on those weak areas, and keep the common mistakes always in mind so that you don't make them again.
