The thing about learning

The beautiful thing about learning is — nobody can take it away from you!!  Whoo hoo ~ so true and such a bonus in life, learning. We have so many options for learning that choosing what to focus on can sometimes be a challenge, that’s what I have found for myself. My interests are so diverse that I didn’t see a connection until much later when I realized that all of my interest were actually connected in the category of Living Fit Lifestyle! I always had a passion for food, eating, cooking and sharing the food with my friends and family. I didn’t always have a passion for exercise, that came when I realized all that food needed a place to be actively filtered so I didn’t keep growing!! Then my journey led me to bodywork, massage and Integrative Health & Lifestyle Coaching … all very important aspects of designing a Living Fit Lifestyle.

So true — whatever you put into your mind, you get to keep 🙂 Learning is a gift to be celebrated. I am required to take a certain amount of continuing education credits to maintain my professional certifications and this is a great way for me to explore new ideas, new research and new techniques for a Living Fit Lifestyle. I just completed a course from edX ~ The Science of Happiness presented by Berkley. What a great experience, there are so many courses available on a multitude of subjects and the beautiful thing about learning this was is the classes are all FREE !!!

Cultivating a habit of lifelong learning is a powerful success strategy that will undoubtedly add life to your years and years to your life. The beautiful thing about learning is the multitude of benefits that you afford:

• Learning develops your natural abilities and opens your mind
• Learning creates a curious and hungry mind and increases your wisdom
