more WL quotes

Learning is like a rollercoaster—exciting, unpredictable, and not for the fainthearted.





Learning vs. Rollercoasters:

1. Thrill of the Ride: Like a rollercoaster, learning gives an adrenaline rush. The fear fades as you dive into discovery and new experiences. Each twist and turn builds excitement and satisfaction.


2. Initial Fear: Both rides and learning scare many at the start. Fear of failure or change often keeps people away, but courage to try, unlocks joy and growth.


3. Climb Before the Drop: The slow climb mimics the effort to learn something new. It’s tough at first—but once you reach the tipping point, the excitement begins and the fun, fast ride and celebration take over.


4. Repeating the Ride: People who love rollercoasters go again and again. Similarly, once learners feel the thrill of growth, they crave more. Lifelong learners are repeat riders of personal evolution.


5. Others Miss Out: Those who avoid rollercoasters miss the thrill. Those who avoid learning miss growth. Staying comfortable means missing out on progress, innovation, and the joy of self-improvement.
