Why we need to keep learning

The brain acts like a computer the more information it assimilates the more powerful it becomes, the more it can use what it has to become smarter, faster and more efficient. It is very dependent upon what the brain takes in whether or not it will become better, stronger, quicker and more effective. The brain has immense capabilities of storing information; everything we see, hear or think is stored in our memory banks. It is whether or not we can extrapolate this information that defines how strong our mind is, the more we train the easier it becomes.

If we want to succeed we need to start putting as much effort into training our brains as we do our bodies, we need to push so it hurts, until we think that we cannot do it, until our mind is tired, by learning new things everyday and pushing as many boundaries as possible. Then and only then will we be developing our minds.

Stop doing the mundane, challenge yourself.

 If you look at any of the successful people of this world, you will notice a trend across the elite of each field. A trend that shows that this individual has taken time to train his mind in such subject, just like habituation the mind relies on constant refreshing and training of new subjects or the deeper understanding of the same. Without this we will simply fade into the background, our minds will become weak and we will no longer be bettering ourselves.  

 This brings me to a saying that has stuck in my mind since reading; 

 While the learners inherit the earth;

The learned find themselves; 

Beautifully equipped to deal with; 

A world that no longer exists
