活到老学到老 养成终身学习的习惯

“The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new lands, but in seeing with new eyes.” – Marcel Proust
“真正的发现之旅不仅是寻找新大陆，也要有一双善于发现的眼睛。——马可波罗
Assuming the public school system hasn’t crushed your soul, learning is a great activity. It expands your viewpoint. It gives you new knowledge you can use to improve your life. Even if you discount the worldly benefits, the act of learning can be a source of enjoyment.
假设公共教育系统没有摧毁你的精神，学习还是非常伟大的一件事的。能扩大你的视野，带来新知识改进生活。即使带来的利益不会那么丰盛，但学习本身就是一种享受。

But in a busy world, it can often be hard to fit in time to learn anything that isn’tessential. The only things learned are those that need to be. Everything beyond that is considered frivolous. Even those who do appreciate the practice of lifelong learning, can find it difficult to make the effort.

在这个繁忙的世界中，根本很难抽出时间去学习那些非必需品的东西。我们只会把注意力更多的放在必须要学的事情上面。其他一切都会被视为无用功。甚至那些一直推崇活到老学到老的人们也会发现到最后不过是喊喊口号罢了。

Here are some tips for installing the habit of lifelong learning:
下面是帮助你培养终身学习习惯的小建议哦：
1) Always have a book
随身带本书
It doesn’t matter if it takes you a year or a week to read a book. Always strive to have a book that you are reading through, and take it with you so you can read it when you have time. Just by shaving off a few minutes in-between activities in my day I can read about a book per week. That’s at least fifty each year.

一年也好，一星期也罢，随身带本书吧，有时间的时候别忘了翻一翻。光是利用每天活动间隙的这点时间，我一周都能看完一本书了哦。一年也就是50多本。
