Good Times
Successful Life
Some other traits of successful life long learners include:
*An ability to admit what they don't know. They're not embarrassed that they don't know everything.
*An ability to think outside the box. Just because something is done one way today doesn't mean it needs to be done that way forever.
*A curiosity about their world which translates into a love of learning.
*The ability to see failure as a learning opportunity, not a way of defining themselves.
*A tolerance for being inept at something to start, as they learn a new skill.
*A desire to be leaders, not followers. They are what author Malcolm Gladwell calls "early adapters," of new trends, technology and ways of thinking.
