#SlowLearnerStruggles: Feeling Like You’re Falling Behind in IT?
Hey there fellow techies! 👋 If you’re like me and sometimes feel like you’re struggling to keep up with all the information and best practices in the tech world, you’re not alone. Being an IAM Engineer comes with its own set of challenges, and it’s okay to admit that some things just don’t click as easily as we’d like them to.
## Embracing Your Learning Style
First things first, it’s important to recognize that everyone learns at their own pace. Whether you’re a visual learner, an auditory learner, or a hands-on learner, figuring out what works best for you can make a world of difference in retaining information.
## Recording Meetings for Reinforcement
I totally get the struggle of trying to remember everything discussed in meetings. One trick that has helped me is recording meetings (with permission, of course) so I can go back and listen to them later. This way, I can reinforce the key points and strategies that were discussed without the fear of forgetting important details.
## Continuous Learning is Key
Staying current in the tech world requires continuous learning and improvement. It’s totally normal to feel like you need to study after hours to keep up with the fast-paced industry. Whether it’s online courses, tech podcasts, or hands-on projects, finding ways to enhance your skills outside of work can be incredibly beneficial.
## Don’t Be Too Hard on Yourself
Remember, it’s okay to not have every detail memorized or every strategy perfectly implemented. The beauty of working in IT is that you’re constantly learning and evolving. Embrace the journey and don’t be too hard on yourself if you feel like a slow learner at times.
## Final Thoughts
In conclusion, feeling like a slow learner in IT is a common struggle that many of us face. By recognizing your learning style, utilizing different methods for reinforcement, and embracing continuous learning, you can set yourself up for success in your career as an IAM Engineer.
So, to all my fellow slow learners out there, keep pushing forward and don’t forget to give yourself grace along the way. You’ve got this! 💪🚀
Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions or need more advice. 😊
Nope I’m a quick learner. But I’m also okay with the fact that I’m going to suck at things that I’m new at. A lot of people are bad and then just stop. Don’t stop, keep trying.
