Why you should learn something new everyday

I am a firm believer in that you should always try to learn something new every day. You have probably heard this many a times from your parents, friends, and family and now you are going to here this from me :). I actually heard it from a colleague at work during the whole lockdown isolation period due to COVID! She starting by telling us that she and her partner had started to learn a new language. I asked, "why would you want to do that?” She explained that they are using it as an escape from the outside world, with everything negative going on they decided to make the most out of a bad situation, for the better!  I didn't understand this at first but after the discussion, I thought about it.

Have you ever struggled with money? I have... I understand life gets in the way sometimes and this can’t be help. But we’ve all been there! I remember having to choose between buying food for myself or getting my mum a birthday present... it’s not a good position to be in. To be completely honest. It sucks . Because when you’re in that position all you seem to do is focus on your own problems, your own rent, phone bill, house necessities, food for your family. The list goes on. Your ability to help others is diminished, not because you don’t want too but because you can’t. Your happiness falters daily. Relationships suffer because of financial stress. I don’t believe money itself is going to make you happy or fulfilled. But you know what? Neither will being broke. So, I made a commitment to take the first step towards a better life. I decided I would do whatever it took to stop struggling financially. I wanted to write this post for those of you who are struggling financially. An
