Never Stop Learning

In recent days, I have become less likely to write articles. This is due to my training and some problems in life. This is temporary. There is nothing permanent in life, we either develop or degrade. That is why I decided today to talk about the fact that we must constantly develop.

You either learn or you degrade

The brain is like a muscle - if you don't train it, it loses its strength.

In our time, a person is obliged to constantly develop. Technological progress and digital revolution can leave you out of the side of civilization. Relatively recently, working on the Internet was considered something unrealistic for an ordinary person. Now working on the Internet is a reality. More and more people are switching to telecommuting.

Imagine, while one person works in a factory, another is sitting on the bank of the oak with his laptop. They both earn money, only the working conditions are different. What is the difference between these people? The answer is simple - education.

Try to stay competitive in many professions without training. Try not to get new skills and knowledge. Do you know what will happen? Most likely you will lose your job or you will earn little money. An ambitious, courageous and modern person will be taken in your place.

However, by the term "education" I have a broad concept. In the usual sense, this word means going to college, school and university. Education in the usual sense means a specific training program for a specific specialty or skill. But name an educational institution that teaches how to live?

Education has never been so accessible to everyone

Nowadays, we can get almost any information without even leaving home. All that is required for this is the Internet and your desire. Promising people see no barriers if they don’t have the money for an expensive college. They don't sit around. They study where they can and it brings results.

I know several people who have not received an "education" in the usual sense of the word, but at the same time have high-paying jobs. The fact is that they strove to gain knowledge in any way possible. The most accessible way for everyone is to surf the Internet. Of course, you will not learn how to fly an airplane, but you will be able to provide yourself with a job.

Therefore, if you have a desire to learn, the best time is now. On the Internet, you can get both free and paid education. You can get a ton of useful information. After all, while you are not learning new things, you are lagging behind progress. And progress does not stand still, even in spite of the events taking place in the world.

Learning is the best way to change your life

All that you have achieved at the moment - you have all this thanks to your knowledge and skills. It's logical to assume that if you want to change your life, you need to learn new things. Each of us has the ability to learn. Some people learn quickly, while others learn slowly. The fact remains that everyone can learn.

There is a misconception when people after graduating from university or college start working and stop studying. But not all people can realize all their abilities at such a young age. Most people reach their peak of intellectual ability after 40 or older. But this is possible only under one condition - continuous learning.

Learning helps you develop your thoughts and broaden your horizons. In addition, your mind will make you feel like a confident person who knows what to strive for. It's a vicious circle. By developing your communication skills, you can make new friendships and acquaintances. And meeting new people is a kind of training. Every person on our way is a teacher.

Study affects life span

Some researchers argue that people with higher education have 50% lower mortality rates than people without education. This seems logical, because educated people are able to use their minds to gain information and solve life's difficulties. But this applies to people who are engaged in constant self-education.

In addition, researchers argue that people with low education are less likely to visit doctors. On the one hand, this is associated with a low level of intelligence, and on the other hand, it is associated with low-paid work. One way or another, a person who is constantly learning strives for a better life.

But how does the length of schooling affect life expectancy? In my opinion, people with a desire for knowledge (receiving an official diploma or constantly educating themselves) occupy highly paid positions or work remotely. Such work requires less physical exertion, less emotional stress and is more enjoyable. Such people prefer to live in safe areas and are less stressed. This is not always the case, though. That's the whole secret.

The ability to continuously learn is the skill of the person of the future

If you were not born a millionaire, then you will be forced to study. Despite the fact that life is the main teacher, you need to have a desire to learn. Robots and artificial intelligence will replace humans. Many professions will be irrelevant in the future and that's okay. The world does not stand still, which means that we must not stand still. If earlier the strongest won, then today the smartest motivates.

Continuing education is the foundation of success. There is no such person who can know absolutely everything, but you should always strive to acquire useful skills and improve your own life. Use your past experience and gain new knowledge - this is an excellent basis for further development. Therefore, I advise everyone to constantly acquire new knowledge, never stay where they have been and expand their own horizons.
