This is a wonderful one for new members as it assures them there is opportunities here. The only challenge I see here is that when a new member is fixated on the earning aspect and actively engaged in bounties, airdrop, contests and the others, there are high chances that the learning aspect will be neglected because the user will be overwhelmed. This is the reason I think the best approach will be to learn to a great extent, read through various threads of the forum and get fully acquainted with Bitcoin as well as the security aspect before becoming fully committed to the earning aspect.
Indeed, it is correct that people who are earning money for some time through bounties and airdrops aren’t motivated to learn skills. But, if we talk about market condition of last 1-2 years, it is bad which has also affected the bounties and airdrops. So what we learned from here is that sometime earning through bounties and airdrops aren’t enough. We might not see good days until mid 2024, and maybe such days come again where market again crashes and making is impossible to make good money through bounties. It is important to come out of comfort zone sometime and learn some skill which are going to be permanent and will help them make some differences.

Once you join any course, please do tell us here so I can update OP, which will motivate other and also keep you on track and for your motivations too.
Good topic and a good offer if you omit participation in the bounty. I know a lot of people who explain to me that it is impossible to earn money from one account to provide food for yourself and your family. Therefore, bounty hunters create dozens and dozens of alternative accounts. What do they end up with? Daily participation in bounty, indiscriminately in all of them, with the hope that at least some bounty will pay out. This takes a lot of time; it’s not for nothing that they call it bounty work. This raises a direct question: when will these people learn something in order to actually acquire normal knowledge? Therefore, the topics are good, and the motivation also seems to be there; however, it is difficult to interest people who are convinced that they do not have time to study something else. People love their comfort zone, and this is why many people do not succeed.
Thank you for the thoughtful response, you have raised some valid points. But we can only recommend what is best for them and how they can change their lives while making some extra income. These guys are privileged they get to know crypto and bitcointalk forum. We are very few and I can proudly say we are early. If, new comers can start learning skills while earning some money through micro task, it’s best in their interest. But if they keep insisting on making hundreds of accounts and cheating bounties eventually they are going down. They could earn in some bounties but not always, as they are going to get caught and all the work they have done will be going to waste. It’s not the best technique and unethical which most people give a shit about, but one should learn how to earn with ethics and follow rules. Things you mentioned does concern me, that’s why created this thread so, they can learn the importance of investing time in learning and come out of their comfort zone. As, bounties and airdrops earning is small and temporary. This not going to get them anywhere in their lives.

the more I read the book, the more I think I am stupid. I don't know, I think I want to stop to read anything books and knowledge source.
I am a mechanical engineering graduate, I am working as staff on oil mining company, I have a lot of free time on normal days, while on office when completing the work, I am play chees and sometime browsing on internet just to know how the blockchain work. But, between the blockchain and mechanical is not connected to each other, sometimes I have to search on internet just to know how to create the code.
So. in the future, can it mechanical and blockchain engineering will connected for each other?. because both is same about technical where both is exact knowledge.
Good to see we have very skilled personnel behind us. It is very thoughtful of you to read book, but it is important to understand books are not always good source of knowledge, One should select a books that is well-reviewed and interesting. Learning always challenges us and more we learn more we feel powerful.
Why don’t you give a try to trading books and courses. As in your free time you can try some trading strategies and start building your portfolio. You must be already earning good, try investing it properly and once you mastered trading then you can choose another skill that is relevant to your field like management etc. As one day you are going to be manager in your company which might be beneficial in your promotions.
I have done MS in Microbiology.

I like playing and watching cricket, reading books, social work, and Volunteer work.
I am volunteering for the past 5 years for an organisation which help community by arranging blood donation camps, fundraising for the patients, awareness campaigns for deadly diseases like AIDS, Thalassemia, Cancer etc.
I joined this forum to learn about bitcoin in detail. I am thinking to learn some soft skills like Social media marketing, graphic designing and trading to diversify my experience. Can you guide me in this regard?
Interesting, Good luck hope you get a scholarship in PhD soon. Our prayers are with you. You are doing such a great humanitarian work, it’s must felt rewarding when you help people who are in desperate need of help. Hope you get rewarded in some way.
As you are in field of crypto one must give a try to trading strategies, do learn some and give them a try as few exchange provide dummy $ to try different strategies. And if you got enough time I think you should go for marketing and designing skills. As you are doing humanitarian work, you must be doing it through some organisation, do learn those skills and start building your portfolio while working in that organisation social media advertisement through banners marketing and such.
