Skillful learning is the process by which learners examine and evaluate their feelings, experiences or beliefs about learning to cultivate and grow self-knowledge about how they learn best. It is a willingness to try and fail and then try again with a new approach. It is a willingness to consult those who know when you get stuck and are not able to move forward. It is about being able to connect and integrate information into your experience of the world. It is about following your interests and passions.
Skilled learners are motivated and positive about learning. They seek knowledge and understanding and avoid failure. These days, expanding your knowledge and skill base is more of a requirement than a choice. You will also discover immeasurable satisfaction in learning. Whether for hobby or professional reasons, learning brings joy and satisfaction, regardless of age or professional level.
