When building a profitable practice, you want to be a lifelong learner. The list of lifelong learning benefits is long and impressive. Here are three of the top rewards of living a learning friendly life:

1. You learn to love and respect yourself. You might have a good relationship with who you are. You’re proud of your accomplishments and regularly give yourself props for being you. Sometimes, though, we can all do with the improved self-image. Self-esteem comes and goes. It rises and falls like the tides. We enjoy high self-esteem after some success, or when we’re around people who appreciate us. Other scenarios, such as failure and spending time with people who bring us down, cause our self-esteem to plummet. Much deserved self-esteem and self-respect are the best rewards for dedicating your life to a constant learning process.

2. You inspire positive change in people around you. Think about the biggest achievements in your life. You probably had to learn a lot to have those experiences. Sure, sometimes we fumble our way to success. A person spends $1 on a lottery ticket and their life has changed overnight. They didn’t have to learn anything for that to happen. Most of your experiences will be directly related to what you know. If you and a coworker are after the same promotion, who gets it? If you learn more skills and practical knowledge than your competitor, you can get the job. When you learn so much that you change who you are, you inspire those around you. Many times, you motivate people and don’t even know that it happened. Your coworker sees all the challenging work you put in to land the job they didn’t get. That can inspire them to take the same accountability approach to their education.

3. You teach yourself that anything is possible. Even the smallest of changes can be life altering. One day, you taught yourself how to build a website. It’s possible to build a site or blog in an afternoon. This is true even if you have little to no experience. Then you start building websites for other people and create a six figure per year income stream. Remember, minor changes can lead to substantial changes. They make you feel good about yourself. They also show you that anything is possible. You didn’t know how to do something before, then you improved your skill set because you decided you can learn what you needed to know.

Adopt a lifetime learning mindset and the world opens up to you. These are just three of the many rewards lifelong learning can offer you. You can change your life in wonderful ways when you give yourself the gift of constantly learning new things.
