Historically, lifelong learning has been revered as the hallmark of a progressive society. Yet, in an era where we're bombarded with information from every corner, one has to wonder: are we becoming so obsessed with learning that we're actually missing out on understanding what we already know? Cameron Lee will dissect this notion, arguing that the constant pursuit of new knowledge could in fact be keeping us from true wisdom and satisfaction. Lee's column will explore the societal pressures to keep up, the inflated value placed on courses and certifications, and the anxiety of being 'left behind' in the knowledge race.
