"It is well to respect the leader. Learn from him. Observe
him. Study him. But don't worship him. Believe you can surpass.
Believe you can go beyond. Those who harbor the second-best
attitude are invariably second-best doers."
- David Joseph

In this century, the ability to earn is directly related to the
ability to learn. Learning how to study is a skill that is very
crucial in today's brutally competitive environment where one
needs to keep abreast of the latest developments in his/her area
of specialization. Continuous learning is a necessity for
survival. If you fail to keep yourself current and up-to-date then
you will be replaced by people who have the necessary skills and
knowledge. Technological obsolescence is one of the worst things
that can happen to a person. To avoid being left behind, being
sidelined, and being counted out, you need to learn- study.
You need to learn new things to keep your mind sharp and agile.
This section will help you in learning how to study
efficiently-smart study.
