Life-long learning and broadening passions

Learning is a process without age criteria. Age is just a number. The substance of human remains unchanged. Human brain has the ability to create new neurons and synapses at any age!!

For life-long learning is important to leave behind the safe zone and to challenge our brain and knowledge.

Some thoughts about that:1. Make your notebook expansion of your hand.

When you listen to something that you don’t know write it down to search it later. It is helpful when you set a day as a Google day.
