Does learning a competitive digital skill a waste of time ?

There is no enough digital skill available for everyone in the online space . Because of this , people are likely to learn skills that is already available with so many experts . Even though there are some competitive skills outhere, there are still some that are not as competitive which in most cases are always the best to learn.

One of the common problem of learning a highly competitive skill is difficulties in monetizing them. Coming to freelancing, there are so many freelancers out there who are not able to earn a living from their acquired skills , simply because they can't compete with other freelancers.

At this point , I would be made to believe that learning a skill that is already on serious competition could be a waste of time since it might be difficult to monitize it. Like , I do not see the needs of learning what you can't earned with.

I think that it depends on individuals. If a person is not interested in making money using digital skills or if a person is not interested in pursuing a career in digital skills, then it could be a waste of time to him.

I think you have a point but as a person, you need to be focused and have enough zeal to learn a new skill for you to be very proficient in it. Even though it’s not easy to shake off your competitor, you can usurp them by creating a niche in the same market you both operate in. This can be done by honing a speciality which gives you an advantage

It depends on the type of business you are interested . As we all understand competition online is quite higher because you are dealing with the world at large. it might be very much easier when you are concentrating in business offline.

This is true. You need to listen to the advice of experienced businessmen who can share strategies that they employed to combat competition. Also, they may not tell you this, because they were not introduced to it in their prime, but online business can also help you overcome the competition and gain an advantage

I think online business has a higher competition compared to the offline world especially online freelancing. People who can succeed now as a freelancer can actually succeed in any business they choose to established. There is a tremendous competition online.
 
It is only going to be a complete waste of time if you are not going to put in work into it. If you learn and then you keep on making simple product you are going to get a job.
 
The reason might be that the competitive jobs may be difficult for people to make money and monetize. But with the right strategy you can still make money even without much problem. .
 
With much of the world in lockdown, there has never been a better time to learn a new digital skillset, all from the comfort of your own home. Learning a skill will help to pass the time you now have available and will also help to increase your value to the market.
 
Personally I believe all skills are very useful it may only seems less use when it time has not yet come. learning a skill in any field is the best thing because it most surly be utilize one day.
 
Even if it's not a digits skill or competitive digital skill, there is no any knowledge that's a waste in this life. Although you might not have opportunity to use everything you learn in life for yourself but who knows, your children might make use of it if you pass the knowledge to them
