Things 1and 2

Things 1 and 2 are complete. I absorbed the information about lifelong learning and am considering the 7 1/2 habits.


The habit that is easiest for me is viewing problems as challenges - I may snarl, growl, and mutter "I hate computers" when I am trying to puzzle out a new skill, but learning new technologies is fun and change makes life interesting! The habit that is hardest is beginning with an end in mind. I sorta know where I'm going, but don't always take the most direct route; a colleague used to say I learned by pushing buttons and seeing what happened which is less true now than it was back in the day...


It is certainly true that the best way to learn something is to teach it to others! Another thing one learns by teaching is that everyone has his or her own learning style and the instructor needs to be flexible and creative in order to be successful. Patience is good as well!
