Not only is it highly functional but I believe highly entertaining, it's great fun to learn.

I also use Evernote and it's really a very helpful tool for me. Setting aside specific times for learning is probably the one thing I should do more of, to improve my learning progress.

I'm reminded of two principles in one of my favorite books, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Dr. Stephen Covey. Habit #5: Seek first to understand, then be understood. When learning, it's very important for us to be a sponge first and siren second. Also Habit #7: Sharpen the saw. Continuous improvement and personal renewal are a never ending cycle to learning.

"Take risks" is a great addition here. I have mentioned it in other writing, but it would be a good one to have on this list as well. - Jeff Thanks for the ongoing excellent comments everyone. “Take risks” is a great addition here.

I would only add that taking risk is also a way of being a lifelong learner. According to a Zanzibari proverb,"to lose the way is to learn the way." I have tested this proverb literally and figuratively many times in my life, and recovery from loss of the familiar has brought about tremendous learning. Thanks much for these tips.
