Ignorance is not bliss

Posted on 15th November 2010 in Learn something new

Some say ignorance is bliss.

I can see where sometimes it would be easier to keep your head in the sand rather than dealing with difficult situations, and I have read plenty of news headlines that have literally brought me to tears, just from the headline.

But a nice lady once said to me…

Don’t stick your head in the sand or else someone will come along and kick you in the ass every time.

I think a very important part of being happy and keeping a positive attitude is education. Educate yourself. You don’t have to pay university-rate tuition to get an education. You can learn something new every day, for free.

Go for a walk and you could learn that there’s a new store in your neighborhood.

Meet your neighbor and you could learn their name, or even find out she works for Krispy Kreme is always has free donuts! <– real life story

If you want to learn something, here’s a great place to start your learning for free. This list is from Marc and Angel’s blog, which has a plethora of Practical Tips for Productive Living.

I have no doubt you can find at least one thing to learn today. :) Let me know what you find!
