There are an infinite amount of thoughts, actions, reactions, arguments, discussions, and approaches in this world. Every day we come across hundreds of new ways of life. With every new way of life, we have the possibility of growing, so why do we choose not too?
How often do we actually choose to learn something new? I have a feeling that many of us, including myself, ignore the possibilities of growth simply because of the ease in comfort. We get our kinder through twelfth grade education done and possibly head on to get a degree from university, but that’s, usually, as far as many of us take our education. We don’t explore more of that which brings about discomfort.
To defeat this settling effect that comes with comfort, we should try to learn one new approach every day. We do not have to continue implementing this once we have learned it, but by learning we will bring about a broader thought process to everything else that we do. Educating ourselves on that which brings about discomfort will help personal growth in accepting and understanding multiple perspectives.
One doesn’t have to spend all day learning something new either. All of us can find 10 minutes to do research on a historical figure a friend brought up or a new way to prepare a vegetarian meal. All it takes is a bit of focus and attention applied to something of discomfort.
For the next 3 days, make an effort to learn one new thing. Don’t spend all day learning about it. Rather, grab a few major points and try to apply to your outlook. You may just find your new, true passion.
