When you think about a more enriched, stronger and better life, think about constant learning. You never stop learning from the day you were born. You learn to stand, crawl, walk, and then talk at the beginning of early age. You then learn from preschool to university, for some people education takes more than 20 years. But when you come to think of that, you actually pick up knowledge and skills even after the formal education years. To live a better life and be successful, learning is never final regardless of your age.
