Learning And What Is It To You

What’s Exactly Learning and Why Learning    

“Learning is a treasure that will follow its owner everywhere.”

Didn’t summed up, well let’s find what learning exactly is? You will surely own it later.

Learning is a human trait and nature. If you are living you must be learning or vice –versa.

I don’t know exactly when we humans came up on earth but I know whenever we came up, we were gifted with an unstoppable feature in us which is to learn and adopt leading us to cling to the topmost position of ever surviving and ever sustaining creatures on this earth. You can get an account of it by searching the history full of extinct ones.

Learning is a change in knowledge, skill and behaviour and even a whole individual too. Yes, it’s true.

You Are Not One Who previously Was

                        

If you think calmly, Are you the same being you were in past days, months and years definitely not. Let me tell you how, you are a living system isn’t it ? Every living system or organism is composed of innumerable cells, I’m talking about building blocks of life , the smallest unit of life.

You must be knowing how a living system sustains life most probably in your junior classes. So all this is just wear and tear of your body cells. Everyday new cells are born and old ones die.  It’s a true fact that Every seven years (or 10, depending on which story you hear) we become essentially new people, because in that time, every cell in your body has been replaced by a new cell.

Learning Is Coding The Software In You

Every food or nutrition we took, nourishes us till our unit level that is up to  our cells which means we are becoming what we eat physically according to a certain code . So each time while eating we are adding it to our body. You can’t deny to this fact.

Now the question is how learning is  related, well see it

You must be acquainted with this that ,  “ You are what you think”

This is not said by just anyone, it has been said by Lord Buddha himself

Learning involves thinking, every thought, idea, experience or skill we go through makes us learn holding our focus and attention. Learning one way paves way for other ways and generates our thinking process. And this process creates situations and circumstances to us which not only describes us but also build our characteristics.

Learning directly or indirectly shapes your mind and thinking process and you know what your thinking can do.

 

 Power Of Learning In Your Brain

Learning initiates in you i.e. in your brain Let’s see a little deep

Do you know your brain weighs three pounds, but it consumes ten times more energy by weight than the rest of the body. Brain is immensely expensive organ. It is the most complex device in the known universe. All your thoughts, your hopes, your fears  you learn  through are in the neurons in the brain.

We prize our abilities to do chess and math, but it takes years of practice and learning to acquire these skills and digital computers are much better at it than we are.  Isn’t it.  But ...

It came as a surprise to discover that what we do so well  though by learning and take for granted like seeing, hearing, reaching, running are all much complex problems than we thought and way beyond the capability of the world’s fastest computers. Isn’t it cool.

Learning has its own reach its a natural process and it continues even after.

There are million billion synapses in your brain where memories skills and are stored.

The old view of the brain is that once it matures, the strengths of synapses can be adjusted by learning. Now you have ample  understanding of what learning is to your brain and what your brain is to you and your upbringing.

 

How Learning Effects Your Brain

This  is a picture of one dendritic branch on a neuron which receives inputs from other neurons. The synapses are on the spiny knobs coming off the dendrite . On the top, the dendrite was imaged before learning . The same dendrite is shown before after learning and after sleep.

Multiple synapses that are newly formed together on the same branch  are indicated by the white arrowheads .You are looking down into the brain  of a live animal. This is really a fantastic new technique. Synapses are less than a micron in diameter.

In comparison, a human hair is around 20 microns in diameter. This new technique allows us to see how learning changes the structures of the brain with a resolution that is near the limit of light microscopy.

This again illustrates that, intriguingly, that you are not the same person you were after a night’s sleep or even a nap. It is if you went to bed with one brain and woke up with an upgrade.

 

How to Learning Effectively

Now if you are aware of importance of learning, you must be definitely wandering about what’s the best way and techniques to grasp and start learning according to your convenience. As you know “A little knowledge is a dangerous thing” so its equally important that how you well you learn as you start this mind stimulating journey.

To help you a little in my advice I can suggest you a small course on “Learning how to learn”.   If you are willing to learn anything for you own betterment in an effective way then this course can make you a pro in learning and acquire what to wish. Don’t waste time on lame thinking, just make sure you go through the process not the source or product if the process is worth doing. And I believe you can find the worth process for you which could give you a purpose.

 

Conclusion

You scrolled through pages to find how you can benefit yourself from learning and how to use it for you. Let me tell you that learning is an innate quality in you but quality is only cherished if it comes into its manifestation. It’s a symbol of being lively and in accord with human nature.

“Learning is a journey not destination”, The more you learn, the more you grow”

 

Now it’s your turn to decide and ask the question that, “Are you ready to learn something or the other throughout your life and whether is it right and worth to have this attitude”. THINK IT OVER.

“ If life is a journey then you are driving through it by means of learning”. So never stop learning.

All the great personalities, who move the world are great because they have given ample time to learning in their respective trade.

You too can become great by power of learning just be of the opinion that you too can learn and prosper.

THANK YOU !!!
