The story of the developments of various society is pretty fascinating. Who did what, why what armies attacked what cities, strategies that worked, strategies that didn’t work.
Once I bought this HUGE book that was filled with historical timelines all the way back to the beginning.
My friend thought I was nuts, as the book was about fifty bucks.
Everywhere Tells A Tale
However, choosing a point on the globe, and then starting back at the dawn of history, and getting all the important events on an easy to read timeline was pretty cool. You got all the good stuff, without having to wade through all the boring stuff.
In school, though, history was the subject I absolutely HATED.
Incredibly boring, AND it was right after lunch, where I had to struggle just to stay awake, let alone pay attention.
Context Is Everything
It’s interesting how the very same subject, as taught in school, is so boring I’d rather dig a ditch with a spoon, but as an adult I find it fascinating.
It’s as if they did everything in their power to make school as painful as possible. Like the teachers sit around in their teacher meetings and make sure their lessons are as mind numbingly boring as possible.
Most of us associate “learning” with school, but if you’re honest, the most important lessons you’ve ever learned in life came OUTSIDE of school.
Life lessons. Money lessons. Relationship lessons. Health lessons. Love lessons.
Lifelong Learning
The truth is that you ARE a natural learner. The purpose of school was NOT to educate you, but to turn you into a conformist factor worker. A worker bee. A drone.
Once you free yourself from the shackles of that old mindset, and realize how intelligent you are, and how much of a natural learner you are, you’ll come to a startling conclusion.
YOU can learn ANYTHING.
Any skill, any collection of information, any category of knowledge, any behavior.
Anything.
What do YOU want to learn?
