Thing #2 Habits of lifelong learning

The day we stop learning, we are dead, no matter when we are buried. Learning has to be play, the 7 1/2 th habit. It is a way of looking at learning, work and play. If my vocation and avocation is the same, then I would be at ease, whether at work or at play. At 21 I made a great decision to go back to School and invest all my savings in two year full-time education. That was the best investment, I ever made. For three generations my family has invested in life-long learning. That has placed my family in the top 20% of the American economy. Beyond the material satisfaction, learning teaches us, not just to make a living, but how to live.
