+# Survival of the Skillest: Thriving in the Learning Jungle
+Bala Ramadurai (his/him) - https://balaramadurai.net
+
+[[!inline pages="internal(2024/info/learning-before)" raw="yes"]]
+
+In today's fast-paced world, the need to learn new skills is more crucial
+than ever. The ability to adapt and evolve not only enhances your
+employability but also empowers you to navigate life's challenges more
+effectively. By acquiring new skills, you stay relevant, innovative, and
+capable of seizing opportunities that come your way.
+
+The session will begin with an engaging discussion on the necessity of
+learning new skills, emphasizing that the ability to adapt and evolve is
+crucial. Using the metaphor of "emptying your teacup," you will explore the
+concept of approaching learning with an open mind, ready to absorb new
+knowledge and skills.
+
+Next, you'll dive into actionable techniques for managing your tasks and
+projects efficiently. Bala will introduce the PARA method—Projects, Areas,
+Resources, and Archives—a structured approach to organizing your work and
+life. You will learn how to categorize your tasks, set clear goals, and
+maintain a balanced workflow.
+
+Furthermore, the talk will highlight the importance of regular reviews.
+Weekly, quarterly, and yearly reviews will help you stay on track, reflect
+on your progress, and plan for the future. Through these reviews, you'll be
+encouraged to ask big life questions, such as your financial goals, the
+impact you've had on others, and your work-life balance.
+
+Finally, you'll be introduced to the 9-windows framework, a powerful tool
+for future career planning. Join us and take the first step towards
+mastering the art and developing the mindset of skillful survival in the
+fast-paced ever changing learning jungle.
+
