Daily Positive Thought Project- Learn Something New Every Day
Each of us has a responsibility to make ourselves the best person we can be. Learning is one of the best ways all people can improve themselves and become better.
It doesn’t take a lot of time to expand your mind. Using the internet there is a nearly unlimited resource of knowledge at your disposal. You can take a class from almost any institution in the world and many of these are free. You also have all of the books of the world at your fingertips. That is a lot of knowledge and understanding that you can download at any moment.
With such a vast store of knowledge, it not out of the realm of possibility that your perspective on life will change with each new thing you learn. This should challenge old beliefs that no longer serve you and bring you a broader understanding of the world. The fear that grips our society can be lessened somewhat with a better understanding of those different from us. Learning provides this.
Keep a journal of all that you learn so that you can revisit it later. It will take more than one read, or visit a piece of knowledge to allow it to become a permanent part of your intelligence. Write down key facts or moving quotes so that you can get power from them later.
