Continuous Learning


I started learning at birth.
I think all of us did.
Lights, colors, shapes moving around us.
It's our first school.

My parents told me that education was a good thing
and I would enjoy teachers.
What did I know?

Everything was new, I was full of spunk and vigor.
I went to school, I learned to read. I immersed myself in universes.

I had opportunities... never really grasped.
I was too smart for my own good.

Like when I dropped a full scholarship
and joined the Navy.

Why? I was lazy and sure of myself.
The Cold War was boring, I was safe.
In service, I was left alone to read and think
and move around the globe.

It was fun, but I snafued the rules and was sent home.

That was a long time ago, but I keep learning.
Everyone names their method, how about Continuous Learning?

Just follow two rules to achieve Continuous Learning:
  • I don't know everything (sorta humble 😉 )
  • I am eager to learn.

"Learning to be at ease with ourselves as we travel this journey is the most important wisdom of all."
