DAY 2: Learning: a Lifelong Career
As food is to the body, so is learning to the mind. // Our bodies grow and muscles develop with the intake of food. // Likewise, we should keep learning day by day to maintain our mental power and expand our intellectual capacity.
Constant learning supplies us with fuel to drive us to sharpen our power of reasoning, analysis, and judgment. // Continuous learning is the best way to keep pace with the times in the information age.
It is a common misunderstanding to regard school as the only place to acquire knowledge. // On the contrary, learning should be an endless process, from the cradle to the grave. // With the world changing so fast, stopping to learn for just a few days will make a person lag behind.
Lack of learning will inevitably lead to the stagnation of the mind, or even worse, its fossilization. // Therefore, to stay mentally young, we must take learning as a lifelong career.
