Why You Should Start Learning Now

 



A wise man once said,

The capacity to learn Is a Gift, the ability to learn is a skill and the willingness to learn is a choice. 


In the world we live in, information is obtainable but some people would rather remain ignorant and mediocre concerning their life. 


Learning is very essential to our existence, just like food nourishes our bodies, information and continuous learning builds our mind and upgrades our way of life. 


Here are a few reasons why we should start learning and continue learning. 


1. Relevance

We live in a rapidly changing world and in order for us to function effectively then we'd have to intentionally learn to remain valuable and stay outstanding. For every area of your life, every sector that you belong to, knowledge is paramount. 


2. Competence 

Learning or acquiring Knowledge equips you with adequate skills and abilities in any area you desire. 


3. Preparation

Continuous Learning keeps you ever ready, for example, you're an entrepreneur and you're called to speak to a group of professionals on how to navigate the world of entrepreneurship. If you're a continuous learner then you wouldn't be caught off guard by the proposal. 


4. Make Better Decisions 

We not only make decisions but we are also made by them. Your knowledge of a matter makes it easier to make decisions. You're making decisions based on learned experience, mentorship, observations, or research but all that matters is that you're more aware of a subject so hence you'll be able to make better choices. 


5. Leadership 

Your Learning isn't all about you, everyone is a leader in one area or the other and you can't give what you don't have. Leadership is all about others, it's about equipping, guiding, and developing people. For effective leadership, personal growth and learning are necessary. 


6. A form of investment

You've heard this saying that the best place to invest in is yourself, yes that's right, learning is self-investment and the return on investment is intangible. 



To get to where you desire in life, learning cannot be overlooked, postponed, or taken for granted. 


It's time to start now, of the six key reasons for learning, what do you think you'd do differently concerning your business, finance, community or any area of your life? 


Learning should be a lifelong practice and one thing I can promise you is that it's worth it.

An Asset?

 Long ago, in a faraway land called Sumer near the Persian Gulf, the city was known as the cradle of civilization.  When their businesses began to bloom such that the administration and calculations of trade numbers or purchases could no longer be done by memory, causing a drag in their mode of operations. This disruption motivated a creative Sumerian to create a solution to the problem which brought about the art of writing. Writing was introduced to the system primarily for record-keeping. Although writing started with symbols (pictograph) and inscriptions on local materials such as clay and reeds. Writing evolved into a sophisticated script called the cuneiform which was used to record information about bureaucracy and authority, and other aspects of life. These were mostly written on scrolls.

The Knowledge gap

  Does the knowledge gap still exist? The concept of the knowledge gap proposes that; as the infusion of mass media information into a social system increases, segments of the population with higher socioeconomic status tend to acquire this information at a faster rate than the lower status segments so that the gap in knowledge between the segments tends to increase rather than decrease. Knowledge is a form of wealth that is often unevenly distributed in a social system just like every other form of wealth. Although this concept has been challenged after the emergence of web 2.0 that is, the internet. Internet use has helped paced the knowledge gap between the advantaged and less advantaged.
