I’m on course to finish learning some fundamental concepts that involve the Bootstrap library and I’ve been seriously thinking how easy it can be to learn just about anything. When I say “easy,” I really mean that we live in a remarkable time where we can learn anything. That isn’t to say that some people are capable of learning faster than others; it’s simply my way of saying how accessible the ability to learn has become.

I know I’m not saying anything remarkable that’s pushing the boundaries of innovation when I say this, however, it’s important for one to remind themselves of this truly remarkable capability. More importantly, there may be far too many people that have little interest in expanding on their scope of reality and almost refuse or deny the idea that one can learn anything.

I get it. There’s this pessimistic feeling that can bombard us through the course of our lives that enables us to believe that we aren’t capable. Or better yet, “we are bounded by the structure of a working world,” where the only things that can get us ahead are pieces of paper with “majors” or certificates that are truly able to mean Nothing. You could have wasting years of schooling at the expense of practical utility or worse off—learned something you didn’t even care about.

We should not blind ourselves to believe that things in life are finite. The working world is evolving and so should you. The ability to learn anything is easy. It is new. And it should excite you.
