This is going to be quite an experience for me. I've been given the opportunity to join the blogging community from my sweetheart niece, Mel. In the process of logging on to the LPLS Learning 2.0 to learn to do this, and hopefully much more, I've started the steps towards a continuing learning process. And yes it's true. A person never stops learning, and it is truly never too late or too early. I'm 57 yrs. old, and I'm still learning something new every day! When it comes to learning habits, it is really a person's individual "learning willingness", if there is such a term! Anyone with the attitude of focusing only on learning an individual interest loses out on what's going on around them. Keeping an open mind and a good eye on everyone and everything that surrounds you each day can be a learning tool. In my business with my tackshop, my best learning tools are my customers. Every one of them has a horse story, something they learned working with their own horses, equipment dos or don'ts, breed differences, and the list goes on. I take in everything I hear, and anything of value and interest can be passed on to other customers with similar learning and teaching needs.
My hardest learning habit is setting an end goal. I seldom stop and think about a single goal of learning because I want to do it all! The second hardest learning habit will be using technology. All this computer stuff is scary to me sometimes even though I've had this for 8 yrs. I've mostly used it for simple things. So, I guess from here on, Katie bar the door! I'm going to try it!
