Acquiring the
Habit of Highly Successful Students

Part 1

We humans are innate
learners, as learning is the cornerstone for survival. We must remember,
abstract and apply knowledge in diverse (and often harsh) environments in order
to develop into behave as truly intelligent beings. In short, the adaptability and
resilience we exhibit stems from learning. Now, a key issue to learning is the
driving force behind it, i.e., the motivation or stimuli to learn. We can learn
because of fear (we want to learn how to protect ourselves from danger.) We can
learn just out of curiosity (our natural inquisitive behavior.) We can learn
because we want to reach some social status (approval of others is a potent
stimuli to learn.) We can learn simply because we love to learn new things every
day. There are plenty of reasons to lean and yours may easily be a mixture of
these. Health and money are important things in life, but learning is the base
for using them wisely.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!
