74 / 365 Learn Something New
Anyone who stops
learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays
young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young.
Recall the days you first learnt cycling,
typing, playing a guitar, a new language etc.! Wasn’t it exciting? It would
have given you some anxiety or tension. But you would have liked it and it
would have kept you busy. Over a period of time, life becomes very mechanical.
If we don’t engage our mind regularly, we will become lazy. There should be
something exciting for the mind and brain every day.
Our brain and mind are amazing gifts of
God. The more we use, the more it will be fit for even more exciting work. Like
a knife or scissor, our mind and brain will become blunt and useless, if not
used regularly. What is used less becomes useless!
Consider the following options:
- Start
learning a new language, music, instrument or skill.
- Every
week or month, start doing something completely new which you’ve not done
at all.
- Meet
new people and get to know them.
·
Develop a new habit, of course, a good habit.
Do this for six months and watch your
excitement in life once again going up!

my book “365 Exciting Ways to Live”)
'365 Exciting Ways to Live' is an ideal gift for any special occasion and a good reading material for supervisory development. You can also gift this book to the school or college you studied.... |
