Weekly inspiration #18: Constant learning

When I was in school, people often told me: “You’re not learning for school, but for life.” As annoying as that sounded at the time, it is undoubtedly true. And today, we’re not just learning in school anymore – life-long learning becomes more and more common and important. Luckily, learning and teaching has never been so easy as today: Platforms like School of Everything or the Supercool School (run by fellow Sandboxer Björn Herrmann) allow everyone to learn or teach almost everything.
What, specifically, should you learn? Of course, that depends – but here’s some stuff that might be useful: This collection of resources probably teaches you everything there is to know (and a bit more) about entrepreneurship. If you’d rather know how to win at “Who Want to be a Millionaire?” using your mad neuroscience skills – here’s how.
There’s only one problem: Learning takes time. But fear not, you can learn that too – here’s Cal Newports great post on time management (and how he can write his PhD thesis and three books and still be done at 5.30pm).
