Thing #2 Lifelong Learner

I find few things more exciting than learning something new and then sharing it with someone else. The habit of accepting responsibility for my own learning has been easy for me. Going back to school in mid-life enabled me to realize the dream of waking up to a job I love on a daily basis. Learn something new every day!

The habit of viewing problems as challenges is the hardest habit for me. I often view a problem as a crisis, and it paralyzes me for the moment. I then have to readjust my thinking as I begin gathering information about the problem. Once armed and ready, I can then jump in and turn the obstacle into a learning opportunity. Now that my paralysis over beginning 23 Things is past, I’m ready to play!
