Continued learning is vital to one's growth regardless of age. I believe our dreams and aspirations are limited to the knowledge that we have, and the only way to gain that knowledge is by continuing to learn wherever we can. Learning on all spectrums is beneficial, from doing a short course to researching a particular topic. I took it upon myself to learn more about the opportunities around teaching abroad, which was a process of continued learning in itself, so I am definitely a pioneer for continued learning.
