Day 190: How to be a life long learner

It has nothing to do with the formal education system. But it will likely involve schooling yourself - about yourself.

I'm talking self-learning.
Learning about oneself, for life.

Learning about life is important.

But learning about oneself is vital.

Knowing everything about life, but nothing of oneself is like having a nice car but no gas. You can't really go anywhere with it.

It looks good on the outside, but on the inside something is missing.

Learn about yourself continuously.

How?

Start at the beginning.
How all living creatures (mostly) learn new skills.

Observation.

Observe everything.

  • Your Thoughts
  • Your Emotions
  • Your Actions (& reactions)
  • Your Physical sensations
  • Your Intuition
  • Your Struggles
  • Your Successes
  • Your Best
  • Your Worst

And then, without judgement, question everything.

Questioning why things are as they seem will always reveal a deeper level of reasoning and understanding. 

Do this and you'll see the world - and yourself - change in unexpected ways.
