Can Elliot's Overreaching Advice Be Improved Upon?

I had this realization when I was having a conversation in discussion topic Tangent from Meditation with ingracke. I didn’t realize the importance of learning grammar and trees until I realized how many times I was failing in trying to say what I wanted. Maybe I am giving too much importance to this one event and I don’t even know if I will even do learning activities in an organized manner but I do feel this realization is true. The realization is that learning has to be problem motivated. Until the problem is not fully in your face you won’t know how and why you need to solve that problem. You won’t know how frequently that error occurs in your life.

(I have a feeling that I’m making some mistake here.)
