What Learning Really Is?

I’m always curious: what is learning really?

Yep. That’s a simple question. But if we try to think deeply, this question might help us become better people, get good at something, or maybe become exceptional engineers/writers/anything driven by this simple question.

So, what is learning really? If we Google this question, we get these answers:

We got these answers from Google. But for you? For us? Personally, what is learning?

For me, learning is simply the way I become better at anything I want to be. For example: because I want to be a great engineer, the ONLY WAY I can become a great engineer is through learning. Learning from anything, anywhere, anyone.

And… I think that if we stop learning, we’re already “dead.”

That’s just my thought. It may be controversial, but we’re human—we do wrong things, we learn from them, and we become better people. If we don’t do anything wrong, I don’t think we will grow. We stay stuck.

Yeah, these are my own reflections, I guess? I don’t know. I was just thinking about it, so I wrote it.

Sooo, never stop learning. Be a lifelong learner, because life never stops teaching us something.
