10 Reasons to Keep Learning Once Youre Done With School
There have always been people who have believed that lifelong learning is a worthwhile process. Increasingly, scientific research is proving them correct and technology is making it easier adults can now take online college classes for the rest of their lives. For example, a recent article in The Atlantic reported that when individuals learn new tasks, they strengthen the part of their brain used in learning the task. Even better, this process makes the neighboring areas of the brain more resilient as well. This means that learning can make what you already know stronger, too.
So, without further ado, here are ten more reasons why you should always keep learning:
1. Fight Boredom. Most people feel bored when they arent challenged and boredom is the number one cause of bad decisions. If youre constantly learning new things, youll be less prone to disinterest. And, in todays world, with TED conferences and the Khan Academy, there are plenty of opportunities to enrich yourself.
2. Keep Your Brain Healthy. A 2010 study out of the University of California at Irvine revealed that learning keeps your brain functioning at a high level. Just like you need to exercise your bodys muscles and cardiovascular system, you need to exercise your brain to keep it in tip-top shape.
3. Grow Your Career. If you learn new work-related skills, youll be more likely to get a promotion or raise. And, with the rise of online education, you can even enroll in certified programs that allow you to learn and improve your career during your off-hours.
4. Model Positive Behavior for Your Kids. If you expect your children to focus in school and take the time to learn their lessons, you should exhibit the same commitment to self-improvement in your daily life.
5. Fight Alzheimers Disease. According to Science Daily, continued learning can slow the physical process of Alzheimers Disease. Youll be healthier longer.
6. Keep in Touch With The World. If you dont know the latest fashion, comedy and news trends, youll sound outdated and out-of-touch. By trying new things and learning new ideas, youll better be able to relate to those around you.
7. Find and Increase Your Pleasure. Learning isnt necessarily a chore. If youre interested in a hobby such as cooking, learning new recipes and cooking processes can be enjoyable. It can make you appreciate your hobby even more.
8. Look at the World with Fresh Eyes. Scientists believe that much of what is called creativity is simply the ability to apply skills learned in one setting to problems in another setting. If youre always learning, this means that when you face a familiar problem, you may be able to come at it with an unorthodox solution, based on your new knowledge.
9. Keep Abreast of Technology. Computers become obsolete within a few years. If youre not constantly learning new things about technology, youre falling behind. Which means youll miss out on social, business and technological opportunities, simply because you didnt keep up.
10. All the Greats are Doing It. Think of anyone, in any field, who is truly brilliant at what they do. They got where they are through constant self-improvement. Truly talented people are constantly learning and implementing new skills. Its worth joining them in this passion.
There are plenty of fabulous reasons to keep learning new things, regardless of what they are. Forming new connections in your brain doesnt have to be difficult, though it would certainly be a good idea to make sure it was some of the time. Now, its time to go out there and just do it
