Winners have an unquenchable thirst for knowledge

In your arena, Eben Pagan. You all know him right? The guy is phenomenal. I'm sure he attributes a lot of his success to massive and consistent learning. In my arena, Tony Robbins, definitely a seeker of knowledge. Both of these people, as well as most of the people who are really creating massively, have insatiable thirsts for new knowledge. One of the main elemental powers I've found in really successful people is their need to understand things. I read and learn new information consciously, everyday of my life. It gives me the opportunity to interpret it, use it, see how effective it is and help other people get the same results I did. In addition, learning new information about your passion, or whatever it is you do, opens the door for an array of idea branches from the main topics you're reading about! Most people learn a ton of bad things, unconsciously, everyday of their lives. Winners, intentionally learn powerful things, a.m.a.p! Be a 3L! Life Long Learner.

In addition, when you learn something new, your brain gets happy. Human beings love novelty and if you can consistently upgrade your skills, happiness results from that. I believe we all need to grow constantly and when we don't, we start getting antsy! As soon as I changed the association to learning from "learning reminds me of school," to "constant and explosive growth creates success," my brain became a ramped learning machine! Thanks for reading!

    Especially in The Information Age...Information doubles like every day or week or something to that extent:

    Everything is constantly changing so it's important to stimulate yourself and learn new things to adapt and keep up to date.

    I love to read and learn new things all the time. When I learn a new programming method I’ll bang away at it for hours or even days until I get it right. When I do get it right it is such a great feeling knowing that I could take these new methods and apply them to something I wanted to do. There is no greater feeling then that of success.

      Yes, I think some people are just programmed to seek the stimulation of learning. For others, it must be actively learned and practiced and I'm sure there is also a group that gets no stimulation at all.

      I love learning though, especially when the learning leads to some action..like learning programming as you mentioned or learning to build a site or something. Then its not just mental learning, but its learning that you can put to active use! Super good feeling

      That is so true. By keeping up to date you open yourself to even more success in your business, and life.

    I can't see how one can be truly successful without a strong sense of curiosity and an open mind...

      Absolutely. It has served me so well in my life to be constantly looking for new things for my brain to link up!

  • Knowledge is something that we could use throughout our livelihood and is a two way sword unless accompanied with wisdom.
