Lifelong Learning

I just did the lifelong learning tutorial and although I know that learning is a big part of my life, it was good to learn about the 7 1/2 habits which provides some structure for learning. I thought that the learning contract was a great idea to formalize my learning goals and to create a plan. I often start down a learning path in a hap-hazard way so it will be interesting to see if I accomplish more and stay on task when I create and sign a learning contract. A learning contract is what we do when we are a formal student, so this is just a way to enable us to stay on task when we are in charge of our own learning.
