"Among the few things more expensive than education these days is the lack of it".
Being a successful learner is no longer a matter of choice or more preference. It is a necessity inorder to survive and thrive in the "information age". The future belongs to learners. As we are constantly told by the various media, we live in a time of rapid change. And the pace of that change is faster than at any other time in human history. Every year, 20% to 30% of what we learned and understood about our world is obsolete.
Today and in the future, it is mind power that will dominate. Wealth and jobs are no longer in the land or physical commodities. Knowledge is wealth. Knowledge is where the careers and security are. So, gentlemen, teaching yourself how to learn is the most valuable skill you can learn today.
