Being over 40 is no excuse!
Hi, I just want to say that we should never say "No I don't want to learn that" because it is a wonderful thing to be capable of learning new things. I didn't start working in the library industry until after I turned 40 and it has been a great challenge to learn a new trade. Even though I was able to bring experiences from previous jobs and from living I still had a lot to learn. Now I am learning yet again with this course on blogging and other internet mediums, what a wonderful thing to be able to pass this on to our customers. I am sure I will also be able to pip my children at the post with some of the things I am about to learn on this course. So thank you for this opportunity. Good luck one and all!

You obviously have an awesome outlook on learning. I hope that it rubs off on some of our fellow course participants and I'm sure you will have plenty of opportunities to learn new things on the course (and outdo your kids! :) )
ReplyDeleteI love your enthusiasm about learning and your determination to not be left behind by technology!
ReplyDeleteI agree being over 40 should not be an excuse to stop learning. Even though i am only in my 20's so far. In most occupations further education is necessary so why not libraries as well.
ReplyDeleteBeing on the wrong side of 49 learning new things can be fun. I find sometimes though it takes me a little longer to pick up. The brains not as fast as it used to be.
