What?? Who?? Lifelong Learners??

A person who possesses continuous personal development through
self-actualised learning. Lifelong learners demonstrate:

- the ability to accept themselves as well as others
- spontaneous but ethical behaviour
- a strong focus upon problems outside themselves
- the ability to capitalise on the qualities of detachment and solitude
- independent stability in the face of hard knocks
- freshness of appreciation
- deep feelings of identification, sympathy, and affection for humankind
- profound interpersonal relationships
- a democratic character structure
- strong ethics with definite moral standards
- philosophical, unhostile sense of humour
- a special kind of creativeness
- the ability to function independently as a part of the growing tip of humanity.

OK to simplify it ...

... is the continuum learning in acquisition of knowledge and skills.

My Philosophy

"It's never too soon or too late for learning."

Lily the lifelong learner :)
