The capability of our brain as human being is one great advantage bestowed on us by God (nature). Many researches have been made as to how much can the average human brain take. What is the optimal level of assimilation and learning we can accommodate. Starting from when we are toddlers, up until now, we have actually been learning one thing or the other; knowingly or unknowingly.
Our senses have been programmed in such a way that mere seeing of somethings alone gets registered in a part of our brain, which we ourselves might not be wary of. This is actually the motivation for today's piece. Never ever stop learning. No matter how old or incapable we might seem to be, we still stand a very high chance of learning something new. Everyday! Every time!
We have seen stories, documentaries of people that decided to go back to school at a very old age. Though this might seem irrational to the ordinary person, but permit me to say it is a decision beyond an ordinary mind. It is a decision of a mind whose soundness transcends the physical attribute, age, or disposition.
Wherever you might find yourself, make a decision to task yourself to always be ready to learn something new. Make a decision to pick up a new skill. Its not all about the fact that you are done with academic education. The day we stop learning (through reading or whichever means) is the day we start dying). You are not too old, not too young, not too educated and most importantly not too dumb to pick up a new skill (most preferably out of your circle or discipline) and equip yourself for yourself and for your community.
mind your minute.
