Dear Data Analyst,
You need to learn to understand insights you have generated and be able to explain them to stakeholders. Sometimes, your viz may not be the SHINIEST but you'd have generated the best insights which SH may not even have thought about.
Learn to communicate

2. Understand the business case, this makes it easy to comprehend the type of analysis you will be carrying out

Dummy datasets and real-world data are two different things.
The former will help you practice while learning, the latter will show you SHEGE and make you learn, unlearn and re-learn.
Dear DataFam,
While studying, before you start analyzing a data, understand the context of that dataset (this can be likened to business case understanding). Understanding the context informs the kind of analysis you'd be carrying out on the dataset.

Datafam I need your help.
So I have this dataset that has columns: sales volume(should normally be float but it has some text in it), naturally you'd just take out the text right? But it can't work in this case cos it's tied to retail price and cost price.
