You’ll work with people.
You’ll have relationships with people.
You’ll live with people.
You’ll co-exist with people.
Then why not study people?
Learn what moves them, motivates them, what makes them tick.
You’ll probably go through your entire primary and secondary education without ever taking a class about the nature of people. And depending on your career choice, you might even go through graduate and post-graduate school and still never take a class that teaches you about people.
And then, you’ll step in to your job or career and you’ll have to work with, collaborate with, negotiate with, people. And as you move further through your career you’ll be exposed to books and other material about leadership training, and management training, which mostly focus on teaching you, how to work with and motivate, yup, you guessed it, people.
So why not get a head start?
No matter where you are in your personal or professional journey, start studying people now. Take interest, learn how to live with them, how to work with them, what motivates them.
And guess what?
You’re a person too.
So one of the best benefits you’ll get from learning about and studying people is that you’ll get insight in to yourself too.
Look, you don’t have become an expert on people, but since you’re probably going to spend the majority of your life around them, doesn’t it make sense to learn more about them?
