One experience that left my feeling incredibly bored is when I was during university student, when I need to attend the orientation on financial literacy. Well, I completely understand the importance of managing finances. I’ve never found the topic particularly engaging. I remember sitting a large house surrounded by other students and struggling to stay focused as the presenter, droned on about budgeting and investment strategies. It all felt overly technical and far removed from my interests. Personally, I prefer subjects that are more creative or interactive. So spending hours listening to lecture was not something I enjoy. Although I recognize that financial literacy, literacy is a valuable skill. I find it difficult to connect with the subject because it doesn’t align my passion or strength.
