Acquiring the Habits of
Highly Successful Students
Part 1
By Herrera
We human are innate
learners, as learing is the cornerstone for survival. We must rememeber,
abstract and apply knowledge in diverse ( and often harsh) environments in order to develop into and
behave as truly intelligent beings. In short, the adaptability and resilience
we exhibit stems from learning. Now , a key issue to learning is the driving
force behind it, i.e., the motivation or stimuli to learn. We can learn because
of fear (we want to learn how protect ourselves from danger.) we can learn just
out of curiosity ( our natural inquisitive behavior.) we can learn because we
want to reach some social status ( approval of each is a potent stimuli to
learn.) we can learn simply because we love to learn new things everyday. There
are plenty of reasons to learn and yours may easily be a mixture of these. Health
and money are important things in life, but learning is the base for using them
wisely.
