When i was in college i am very lazy to take all the things my instructor was telling us, i chose to write anything in my diary, notebook, write stories and etc. than listening now i am paying my prize.
I found myself as a late bloomer, now i am very eager to lean new stuff like improving everything i can do, i think it is stirred by my experiences in my work environment, the boss had a high respect and trust to those to have masters degree or from a prestigious schools here in our country, sometimes i felt like not respected at all, they don't see my abilities only my incapability, so now i am very eager to earn a masters degree or be excellent on something, as i have said on my come back post, i am taking MyLot as my Practice ground for writing, i keep on posting, writing.
If I will have the financial opportunity to study I'd like to get Master's in Research and Development but the thing is My graduate course is InfoTech, i'd like to have master's in Computer Science too, but there is a admission qualification, i have to be proficient in atleast one programming language but I don't have one. And I desire to be a teacher.
I feel like I am a child who wants to learn everything...
How about you do you have something you wanted to learn and how are you going to pursue it?

Learning always is very good for everyone.We have our entire life to learn things .Every day teaches a new thing or gives a new experince to everyone.Its only that we should decide how to utilise what we learn.We should have to see whether we are learning good knowledge which is good of us as well as for everyone.

yes i agree to that point,.Proper management of what we learn is indeed a tool for success, this happens to the carrer and opportunities which come in our way.
I was discussing that we learn each and every day about something or the other.

umabharti,
that's right learning from experience is the best knowledge formal education can not teach, In everyday there are bunch of knowledge scattered and it's our choice if we will pick them up, and many times, we learn form other's too, and that is how we develop our selves.

You have a good attitude towards learning. Learning is part of our development and what keeps us going through life. When we stop learning, we stop living. children seem to learn so fast and seem to absorb anything one teaches them. I believe because it is fun for them. Learning should be fun so it can keep us motivate to continue the lifelong process of development. I try to learn something new everyday as I grow old so that I can grow old with a sense of dignity because of the knowledge I have and can share with others. Keep learning, and keep making it fun.

I am eager to learn, and I am actually 2/3 of the way through a Psychology degree because I love learning that much. It is hard work passing the exams and everything, but going in for this degree is honestly the best thing that I have ever done in my life and I will never regret choosing to do so. I think that learning and knowing a lot of information really can open the world up to you. I would love to be able to speak another language, and aim to learn Spanish in the near future as I have a holiday property over there and would love to be able to speak with the locals properly rather than just making small talk with the very little Spanish that I understand at the moment.

The world is so fast.Each and everything changes in our life like,schools,colleges,companies.No one can be in the same school,colleges,companies.Everyone goes to there wish for jobs beacause it is there own interest and carrier to be choosed.No one can stop us from our own willings.In the same time our parents shows true affection love and advices us to choose carrier we like the most.Learning is the most important to all and we have to gather information from all.

The first thing you must do is to assess what you really want in life. If you want to go back to school or learn thru your own. There are many opportunities to learn, be in tradtional or non traditional as in online courses. You can also have masteral degree on line , you choose your own pace and schedules. Whatever you do, have a positive learning attitude and then you can start from here. I have been dreaming too of having my masteral but what hinders me is my health condition. I am now taking preparation to try the "open univesity" and hope I can pass the test.

I am considering distance learning as my tool for earning a master's degree but i do not know what happened to me just a week ago i think it's last friday I went to an Open University, i can't really step my foot going to the 2nd floor to the distance learning office.I tried so many tme, attempted to go upstairs but I did not succeed i went home laughing at myself, I do not know what kind of action i have just done. I did not tell it to the one who's keep on encouraging me, She might scold me.

Every time I look back during my life as a student, I always wanted to improve my skills back then. I also wanted to become a writer and I have to keep on practicing my grammar, spellings and it seems like I'm going back to the basic. Well as long as you are eager to learn, I think that you should succeed with almost everything. You just need to be determined and focused with your goals.

Programming is a very nice thing to learn but very hard to understand, I can not understand every lesson we have before but now i am very interested to review now i can say i can cope up with the subject.

Wow, i am amazed at your enthusiasm to learn many things. Keep it up and work for the one that will truly benefit your work now.
Now that i am past my prime, i don't wanna tire myself anymore of learning how to do more things. I think i have enough that can serve until my old age together with my husband.
My only desire now, is to be able to learn how to ballroom dance, because when retirement age comes, it is the best thing to do when socializing with fellow retirees.
Here in our province, senior citizens really have fun when they socialize and go dancing. I have to prepare for that , perhaps when i am near that age.

Me during college days,true to be told i used to prepare notes all the time during intervals,lunch hour.I love and like very much to prepare notes and write books of my own.But during my school days i used to spend time with my friends. And after that during college days my aim was to score more marks to enter to a good jobs.Now,i feel iam like a child and makes to eager to do even what a child does.I used to think of my childhood days and so on..When i was in 10std i used to respect teachers.As my parents used to tell me TEACHERS AND DOCTORS ARE OUR FIRST GOD TO US.Many dont believe or may laugh at these sentence but to me its very true,as it is told by my parents.So, as a child i want to learn everything in the world.
