Outside of the classroom, we can sometimes rebel when we have difficult experiences. We get caught up in our emotions: the anger, bewilderment, disappointment, and even grief, we might experience. Often, we fail to remember that throughout it all, all experiences – good and bad – are opportunities for us to learn and grow.

Having said that there is also benefit to keeping our mind engaged. So many of us are happy to see the back of our high school and university days. But continuous learning is not just important for our professional development and growth, it also keeps our mind sharp by delaying the onset of memory loss and other degenerative diseases which tends to increase as we age.

Throughout the day, we invite you to revisit this quote. We also encourage you to embrace the opportunities to learn and grow – large and small. Ultimately,  the objective is to gain more wisdom and insight today than we had yesterday, so that you can better navigate your life, and the people and experiences that shape it..

Best wishes, and have a great day!
