Interested in learning a new technology? Read this

In today's world, tech are changing everyday, programming fields included, new tech comes to the light, and you may be pressured to learn it because others are using it, but should you really learn it too?

I have been wondering that myself for a long time, and I actually felt bad for not knowing the new tech or the new programming languages, but I found out that it really doesn't matter.

If you don't need it, don't learn it.

Is this new tech going to make your life easier? Are your clients interested in using it? does it have a potential market?

If all of the above questions are no, then you shouldn't really bother learning it, at least right now.

Take a grip of your current tech first.

How good are you in using the tech you have? Are you really ready to add a new tech to your list of skills?

Don't rush it.

You may be inclined to learn any new tech that comes to light, but if you decided to learn every new tech that comes out, you won't be able to concentrate on the current ones you have. so before learning a new tech make sure to take it slow first.

This is the end of the post, this is my first post ever, so I am sorry if it isn't that organized, with that being said, what do you guys think? have you ever been in a situation were you felt inclined to learn new tech to find out that you didn't really need it? All comments and discussions are appreciated!
