Ness Labs: The educational and economic necessity of lifelong learning

100% agree. I'm biased, of course, because I'm in the training business. But I really do believe in the three reasons the article gives - lifelong learning helps you to: 

  • Adapt to an ever changing market
  • Spot new opportunities
  • Explore different career paths

The second bullet goes on to note, "By exposing ourselves to more knowledge across various fields, we are increasing our chances to discover a need or a gap to be filled." 

To that same end, I wholeheartedly recommend the book Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World, by David Epstein.
