Say No to Knowing: 4 Benefits of Life Long Learning
No matter your age, job title, or resume, there is always room to learn.
Many times, as we gain expertise throughout our careers, we tend to become “knowers” as opposed to early in life—through our early 20’s– when our main “job” is learning. It seems the more we know, the more it gets in the way of learning.
Alvin Toffler’s book Future Shock includes a powerful quote: “The illiterate of the 21st Century will not be those who cannot read and write but who cannot learn, unlearn and relearn.”
We benefit from lifelong learning in so many ways:
- Economically—you’ll earn more the more you learn.
- As a leader—you’ll change and adapt to the market and your team.
- The Dos Equis Effect—Like the most interesting man in the world, learning makes you more interesting.
- You’ll be healthier—learning is excellent for the brain.
Fight the natural fear of change and the unknown. Personal and professional growth improves your life and the lives of those around you. Carve out dedicated time to learning and Cut the Bullshit.
