The World is Moving Forward Very Fast

I am not talking about the rotation of our planet earth but about progress in the world . . . . about science, technology, etc which affects peoples' lives. Somebody once said, " The world is moving fast like a train passing by and if we stand still and do not try to catch up we are not staying where we are but actually moving backwards." This means that we must keep on learning to catch up with current knowledge and information or else we will be out of date. In my country our government encourages Learning for Life. In my lifetime I found this very true and I have been trying to catch up with technology . . . . I am still learning. At this time when jobs are being cut and money is harder to find we should use this time to increase our knowledge so that when times are better we are ready to progress. I am providing a few articles to show how we should use this lull period prepare ourselves and go for better prospects. Never stop learning my friends.
