What Did YOU Learn Today?
Learning should be for life. Sometimes, many of us can make the mistake of thinking that learning is reserved only for children and the young, whether it’s a toddler learning to walk for the first time or a college student with their head in a book.


But as adults we need to be learning and growing, too. Every moment of every day we are being presented with new and important lessons. These lessons might have a number of things to teach us. They might teach us more about who we are as a person, what we are capable of, what our limits are or what is most important (or not) to us. We learn from our successes, from our failures…there is so much to learn from our relationships, not to mention everything that there is still left to learn about the world and everything in it.


If you think about it, our lives are an endless pursuit of answers and new questions.


So how can YOU take action to ensure that your learning never comes to an end?


At the end of each day, perhaps as you are getting into bed, why not take a few minutes to think about what the day has taught you. This will not only help to keep you in the habit of actively seeking out opportunities to learn, but will also push you to find proof of positive things happening in your life. This will help to keep those positive energies flowing, resulting in more days filled with learning, gratitude and success.


So here you are, 10 suggested questions to consider at the end of each day, to boost both your happiness AND brain!


1. What have I learnt today?


2. What was I most proud of?


3. What made me laugh?


4. How did I push myself?


5. Did anything surprise me?


6. How did I move one step closer to my dreams/goals?


7. How did I show someone love?


8. How did someone show me love?


9. What did I get excited about?


10. What am I most grateful for?


Learning should be for life. So see each new day as an opportunity to grow, to expand and to become an even better person than the one you were yesterday.


What has today taught you?

1. It is nice to know the you are never alone in your thinking. 2. I am proud of Jesus and his wisdom he has given me through him!( 1 cor1:30-31) 3. When I look into the mirror and know God still loves me anyway! lol

4.self control and self discipline are part of the fruit of the Spirit( gal 5:22-23) 5.How many people really do not listen to others,and are not willing to learn from others. 6.Psalm 119:133

7.By letting them know they indeed always have love to give. 8.By confirming Jesus lives in me. 9. When a testimony is given by a brother or sister that helps others as well as themselves.

10 I am grateful and thankful for what Jesus has done in my life,and how through my life, I can through him, bring hope to others!

There was a test when I ran a security company i gave every person,I did this to find the best fit for the job they were seeking to have. 1. name 3 animals,example 1 tiger,2, lion,3 a bear. next give 3 personality traits concerns each animal,not color or size,but personality!

Example for the tiger,1 strong,2.silent, 3 resourceful. the rest of the test is really a filler,this part is the most important! defined-the first animal is how others see you,the second animal is how you see yourself,and the third animal is how you really are.

Now true this can change from day to day,but you find out a little of the mindset of the person seeking a job. This test was given from the University of Michigan and proved to be 98.8 percent accurate! People who came on campus to work on campus were given this test to best see what job they could fit into that was best for them,and for others they worked with.For those with the same personality worked better with each other,then those who were very different in there personality's .Thought you just might enjoy that as well sis. thanks!

Thanks for reading. I hope you enjoyed answering the suggested questions. You are really a man of wisdom. Thank you for sharing some of your life's lessons. Too bad some are not willing to learn from you. But for me, I am more than willing to learn.

The test you shared was interesting. But you forgot to say what you would choose if you were to take the test. If you ask me. I would choose lion, dolphin, and eagle. Lion is brave and strong. Dolphin is happy and friendly. My favorite is eagle because christians are like eagles. They soar high. You cant charge me for cheating because you already gave the answers before the test. haha! Thanks!


Isaiah 40:31: "Those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles."

Deuteronomy 32:11: "Like an eagle that stirs up its nest and hovers over its young, that spreads its wings to catch them and carries them on its pinions."

Psalm 103:5 says the Lord satisfies your mouth with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.


Did you know that 32 times in scripture the eagle is used as an example of the Christian life? That's because eagles are unusual birds who are born to soar higher and faster than any other bird. And as God's eagles, we are made to soar in heavenly realms.

Eagles always build their nests in the highest possible place for three reasons:

1.As protection from their enemies
2.As a perch for surveying the territory
3.As an energy-saving launching pad

The Word of God is to us like the nest is to the eagle. It is our protection—our shield—from the enemy of our soul. The written Word gives you a strategic view of the world around you, shows you where to fly and where not to fly; warns you of dangers out in that big world. When your launching pad is God's eternal Word, you're really able to soar like an eagle.


 
And you are not married???? LOL Do you live among blind men or something sis??? For in both word and deed the Lord himself has shown you much in people as a whole! Wisdom can be silent as well,during the Vietnam war I dwelt a few years with your people in the P.I.

A very hard working people,and many do have such great wisdom in life as a whole,rather then schooling.I have a great respect for a people who have been through so much,and instead of grumble, or complain, press forward!( Phil 3:12-14!) I enjoyed your pop quiz very much sis, LOL For what good is having a mind unless that mind is put to use! hehe

Your words on the eagle tell me much,as well as prayer does. You survey the land, before you land first,you have high regard for self preservation,so trust never comes easy for you.You are a deep thinker,making sure of your steps in both word and deed. Am I close sis??? LOL

As you well know the wisdom of the Lord grows from both his Word and prayer, my final animal is indeed the bear,protective,always hungry( to learn more),and loyal! A friend to me, is defined as being willing to lay my life down for that friend if needed, not thought about it,nothing to consider!

Instinctive, meaning having skill from our Jesus in both word and deed,as you have. Boasting is for others to do,not for myself.( proverbs 27:1-2!!) Revelation of self is never to be written for me sis,but rather seen, then described by the person who witness this.

For words can be twisted to mean whatever the writer wishes to hid from. My writing is based upon who lives in me,and what he has done in my life,( LIGHT!!)as my testimony which has been written in my blog.

For Gal 2:20 is my mindset now,and my desire is to have people truly bare witness to Christ and his love for us all! As you stated so well, the Word of God is to us the nest to the eagle,and place of strength, to draw each day from. Home stays in our Jesus sis! And wherever we go, or whatever we do,we stay mindful of who we are in him,and listen always to be led by him!( rom 8:14-15)

There is never fear at home,so we always stay home in both mind and spirit sis. The claws from which the eagle has is always holding on to the Word which causes him or her to soar to, or from.

And the beak draws out the word,to change his or her circumstance in any situation! From the Words through our Jesus( HIS Word) he causes us to always know the proper wind to extend our wings to fly closer to him,and farther from the enemy! There is always purpose,and results!

You made a fine point of interest in that 32 times an eagle is mentioned in scripture, i did not know that!! hehe A point to consider Tinkerbell, love does not flee its own self,it presents itself for as long as another person desires to have him or her around.It can never fail!!( 1 cor 13:4-8) Love is the very wind to which the eagle soars in and through! And the higher we fly, the greater the wind,and the more we learn from him.

I said much more then I intended sis. LOL But we have both learned such a valuable lesson,the more you can know of ones footsteps( our Lord's) the more established we can become in ours.( psalm 40:2) Thanks so much again Tinkerbell for letting Jesus be seen in you,to further confirm Jesus in me!! amen!!( psalm 27:13!!)

Thank very much for more of your life's lessons. I know right? Im single. But what can I do? God protects my heart and is being so picky for me. LOL! But I trust Him fully. He said that those who hope in the Lord will soar on wings like eagles. I'm counting on that. :-)


And you are right, like the eagle, trust never come easy for me, and im also a deep thinker and very analytical. That test was really interesting. And you're a bear? You are endangered specie. Loyalty is a very rare quality nowadays. Lol!


Thank you again! Continue to soar like an eagle on your faith...I'll find time to read your blog later.


God bless.
