I don't agree with this:

Reality directs your learning.

With or without a mentor you are still being forced to work in a particular direction. Do you read a book for your own benefit or for your employers or for both? Who appraises you? Are your colleagues impressed by what you've learnt?

Unless you live on a desert island you probably have constant feedback.
