Easiest and Hardest Habits (of Lifelong Learners)

The easiest habit for me is to accept responsibility for my own learning. I know that I've got to be the one to decide if I'm going to learn. No one else can do it for me, and no one can talk me into it.

The hardest habit for me is to view problems as challenges. In the abstract, I can say, "If a problem comes up, just take a deep breath, and view it as an opportunity to learn." Ha! If a real problem comes up, it's not good. I'll think "why did this have to happen?"
