Learn Something New

Make education a continuing, never-ending process. - Nido Qubein

I have an intense curiosity about the world, how things work and the meaning of everything. :-) I am constantly and consistently striving to learn something new every day. I’m fascinated by many subjects and never seem to have a lack of something new to learn.

I think it’s important to learn something new on a regular basis. It keeps the mind fresh, puts new life into your curiosity, jumpstarts your creativity, enhances your logical thinking and gives you an appreciation for the diversity of our world.

You don’t have to be quite as obsessive (maybe that’s too strong a word) as me, but striving to learn new things on a regular basis; daily, weekly or monthly will go a long way towards promoting mental health which helps in sustaining your overall happiness level.

Nowadays there are a host of resources available at our disposal; regular schools, online resources, public libraries, continuing education, craft/music/art classes, social groups, clubs and etc. If you don’t know where to start, just pick something that sounds remotely interesting and try it out. If you don’t like it, drop that idea and try something else. You can’t make a mistake here. It’s all about trying something new, learning a new skill, fact, craft and etc. Have some fun while you are experimenting.

You may find that you will generate an interest that you didn’t know you had until you tried it.

Enjoy.

Michael
