What Did You Learn Today?
You really do learn something new every day.
This is not just some cliché phrase, it’s literally true. Some things you learn are huge and life-changing, but most are minute and easy to overlook.
One of the greatest joys of life is that there is always something new to be learned. Because there is always something new to learn, virtually no situation is impossible or irreparable. You simply may be lacking in the necessary knowledge.
Learning is often tied in with change. As you learn new things, you change your opinions, you change your technologies, your life shifts. It is as inevitable as change itself, so it’s no surprise learning and change are linked.
One of the oddest things about people is our paradoxical resistance to change and desire to change. We get comfortable with the world as it is, and dislike change. Yet, at exactly the same time, we want to be happier, healthier, more centered, and that is a product of change.
Controlled change versus uncontrolled change
While this is not a black and white, either/or concept, change generally happens in these two forms.
Controlled change, when you make choices like new jobs, new diets, new relationships and such.
