Working in full time jobs was learning but limiting too. You can only learn what the job role was supposed to do.
For me I learnt a lot from my internships & volunteer work. When you don't know anything learning is always more and faster. I did volunteer work along with my jobs too which gives me a lot of learning.
My freelancing & consulting work helped me polish my skills and move from being a practitioner to being an expert.
Freelancing helps to hone skills at a basic to intermediate level. Consulting helps hone skills from intermediate to expert level.
The best learning for me however came from being an entrepreneur. Not only one improves skills in areas of expertise but also in areas we have never worked in.
I learnt finance, legal, operations, hr, marketing, strategy as an entrepreneur. It also pushed me to become better at managing self & others. My learning as an entrepreneur was at least 10 times faster & 10 times more.
