never too late to learn

My iPad for Seniors course was featured last week in the Herald Sun, with a headline that is SO apt – “never too late to learn”. What I’m constantly amazed by in the Seniors courses I lead is that the attendees consistently continue to amaze me with their great attitudes towards learning, and have even more enthusiasm than many younger people I train.

I asked one particularly energetic older lady about this once, and her answer was simple. She said, “you see, we have been there and done that, and we know that without effort, there is no learning, and we also know that without learning, there is no magic formula to success in life.”

So simple, so true, and something to remember.
