Learning

“Develop a love of learning.”

* * *

One of the best things you can do for your confidence and growth over the course of your life is commit to a lifetime of learning.

For some people, this is easier than it is for others.

Personally, I have always been a huge nerd when it comes to traditional learning. I loved school and academia. Even today, I feel a sense of peace and excitement when I drive by or walk through a high school or college campus (weird, I know). In college, when we were prescribed a certain number of general education classes, I purposefully sought out random courses just because I wanted to learn about, say, German Culture and Civilization, or Art History. I mean, why wouldn’t you want to take “Witches and Witchcraft from the Middle Ages to the Present” (which is a course that my alma mater ACTUALLY offers in undergraduate studies and that I am so jealous current students have the opportunity to take!)

Anyways, the point is that learning is important. Similarly to what we discussed about committing to a lifetime of growth and improvement, the moment you stop learning, you stop growing.

Especially after you have uncovered your RFB (using the exercise on Day 20), you will have received a huge gift from the universe in understanding what it is that you are passionate about, and how you can use that passion to contribute to the world around you. Most people struggle their whole lives to understand their purpose, so once you even begin to tap into what you think yours may be, you owe it to yourself to read more, grow more, and learn more about that topic.

But of course, you aren’t confined to only learn about your topic of passion for the rest of your life. If something interests you, pursue it!

Rule of thumb: If you’re intrigued, explore.

Plus, by exposing yourself to new schools of thought and information through reading books, listening to podcasts, browsing blogs and online publications, taking classes, or whatever other methodology best suits you, you are actively expanding your realm of knowledge and your understanding of the world around you. You become smarter, and you are equipped with more knowledge to be able to make better decisions about your future. And if that isn’t self-improvement, and confidence-building at its very finest, then I don’t know what is!

Here is your Day 21 Challenge:

Spend 15 minutes today reading something enriching, positive, and informative in your field of study. See how many days you can do this is a row!
