Some people think learning is a task at school, which is all wrong. Because they aren't aware of the reality that the society is huge school and we need to learn new things constantly. Life is just like the race, and who stop learning is just people who stop running ahead.
First of all, more often than not people who are good at learning possess many advantages in works. They are easier to find true ways to achieve objects than others. Because learning is not only reading some books or searching for some information, it is a comprehensive skill which can help you to find the point fast, consider the issues roundly and solve the problems precisely. Finally, these knowledge which you gain can influence subtly you life.
In short, learning is to people what water is to fish. At an age of competing, we have to accelerate ourselves by learning for exceeding others. As Aristotle once said, "learning is an ornament in prosperity, a refuge in adversity, and a provision in old age.
