i think our perception of skill building has changed a lot over the past year you
know we always relied so much on the presence of instructors enough structured school programs to
learn but panemic really showed us that of course sometimes we need some of that in order to learn
specific skills but there are a lot of skills that we can learn in an independent and autonomous way
at home so in my perspective there are so many skills you can learn at home and that kind of
comfy environment and the convenience of learning at home can really make an ideal environment
to self learn something new so today i wanted to give you some ideas and motivation and inspiration
for skills you can learn in 2022 so without further ado let's get started with number one
so first of all i have basic accounting skills so for basic accounting skills you should at
least be able to record a company's or your own financial transactions over a period of time
the idea is that you learn the principles of reporting transactions and organizing that
information over an accounting period learn how to summarize the company's cash flows
and financial position too and since this is a key function in almost all types of businesses
and a lot of these principles can also apply to your own personal finance analysis
it's definitely something worth studying and practicing as that will give you a
major understanding of how you can make informed financial decisions
okay so while the first one can be quite a necessity learning calligraphy in the digital
world is more like a luxury rather than a necessity but it's still something really
