Each learner must have the mindset that he/she is responsible for his/her own learning, nobody else can make him/her learn.

When learning is taking place, some changes are taking place in the brain. These changes can only be brought about by the learners themselves. When changes take place in the brains, learners conceptualise and making associations between past and present experiences, which may or may not be scientifically correct!

"If you look to lead, invest at least 40% of your time managing yourself - your ethics, character, principles, purpose, motivation, add conduct. Invest at least 30% managing those with authority over you and 15% managing your peers. Use the remainder to induce those you 'work for' to understand and practice the theory. I use the term 'work for' advisedly, for if you don't understand that you should be working for your mislabeled 'subordinates," you haven't understood anything. Lead yourself, lead your superiors, lead your peers, and free people to do the same. All else is trivia,"

• Our brain is a fantastic biological system that is able to readjust itself to suit the demand of the conditions of the environment.
• The more you use it, the faster it will response to the demand.
• The more challenges that you try to solve, the more linkages your brain is able to create between pre-existing perceptions & pre-conceptions as well as newly created concepts.
• The rich becomes richer; the wise becomes wiser. Unfortunately this is exactly how the brain works.
• So, use your brain as much as possible and you will on the way to become richer and wiser!
