Learning something new

April 27, 2009

I used to do technical research as my main job description, and yes sometimes it could get boring. Good thing I would also be assigned for field work and site inspection which I gladly accept as a break from my regular office tasks. Doing exhaustive research can be challenging and when I’m done with a project, the feeling of self-fulfillment is there especially since I learn something new along the way.

As a business mentor used to say, the mind should always be open to new learnings and one should always be sharp and alert, feeding the mind by reading books and informative articles. Personally, I feel that topics that are important to one’s life such as finances and self-development should be given more priority. For instance, financial intelligence is as important as emotional intelligence. Knowing how to manage your finances and not being a slave to unnecessary expenses are just some of the wisdom gained from helpful financial books. 



It’s also good to learn about insurance as a safety net aside from having savings. Those who want to study more and do research about the common types of life insurance can check out ReliaQuote’s online resources. It’s a site which offers instant insurance quotes with pages on insurance topics such as an explanation about the common types of life insurance - term life insurance, whole life insurance, universal life insurance and variable life insurance. Knowing the differences between these types is important when choosing an insurance for your individual needs as well as those of your family.
