Acquiring the Habits of
Highly Successful Students
Part
1
By Herrera
We humans are innate learners, as learning is the cornerstone for
survival. We must remember, abstract and apply knowledge in diverse (and often
harsh) environments in order to develop into and behave as truly intelligent
beings. In short, the adaptability and resilience we exhibit stems from
learning. Now, a key issue to learning is the driving force behind it, i.e., the motivation or stimuli to learn. We
can learn because of fear (we want to learn how to protect ourselves from
danger.) We can learn just out of curiosity (our natural inquisitive behavior.)
We can learn because we want to reach some social status (approval of others is
a potent stimuli to learn.) We can learn simply because we love to learn new
things everyday. There are plenty of reasons to learn and yours may easily be a
mixture of these. Health and money are important things in life, but learning
is the base for using them wisely.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!
