On Learning

I place a very high value on learning, and I pretty much always have.  Since I've been out of school, I've thought of graduate programs or individual classes I'd be interested in or benefit from.  I've listened to science, economics, and business podcasts, and read all kinds of books on similar topics.  At one point when I was consistently over-stressed, Gabb told me to start reading a fiction book every other turn.  I think it helped, but I was also still so hungry for knowledge and meaningful advice that I just ended up reading multiple books at a time. 

The difficult thing for me is finding an area I want to dive deep into, something that I can turn into a job or business.  I generally think of myself as multi-talented and flexible, but it isn't clear to me what kind of career path that really sends me down.  So I suppose, until I find something specific I really love, I can just keep learning as much as possible.  There is value in having capacity to learn.
