Week 1, Thing 2: Lifelong Learning

I viewed the tutorial and listened to the podcast. I enjoy learning new things, but I have never felt compelled to create a learning plan or follow a specific procedure. Perhaps if I did, I would be more successful. I tend to be a dabbler and don't consider myself an expert in anything. I am a gadget freak and love new electronic devices, but I never seem to master all of the features available with any of them.

As for the 7 1/2 Habits , I would say that the easiest for me is #2. I am aware that the degree of my learning is directly proportional to the effort I put into it. The hardest is probably #3. Although I enjoy the challenge of solving puzzles and mysteries, I tend to view problems in the real world as difficulties to overcome or avoid but not as learning experiences. I should try to put that positive spin on problems in the future.
