Thing #1

Listening to what is meant by a lifelong learner was very interesting to me. I would have to say that I am a lifelong learner but never really put much thought into everything that is truly meant by the term life long learner. I think that the trait that is related to life long learning that is the hardest for me to do is to look at every obstacle as a challenge. It is very hard sometimes for me to have a positive attitude and to look at things as a challenge, often times I look at problems that come up at a hindrance. I think that this has always been a down fall of mine. I tend to lean more toward the glass being half empty and not half full.
On the other hand I think that the most fascinating trait that I 100% can relate to is the trait was described as using technology to make things easier. I am very good at this and love learning new things about technology. I think that it is fascinating what all a computer can help us to accomplish and what time a computer can save us when we are completing a task.
Over all I would have to say that there were more trait that I could realte to dealing with lifelong leraning than traints that I could not.
