education and vocation


EDUCATION AND VOCATION

Recently I don’t know why I am very attracted in books. A friend of mine suggests a good book and from there I started to almost buy a new book each week. I realized that I am attracted to books that talk most about metaphor in life. I am a person who really likes to learn about how the world works, one of the ideas that I am interested recently is about people’s perspective to life. This action is educational because I am educating myself by reading books.
I have changed the way I see things in life because I had read books that influenced my mind to see the world in different ways. The books that I read, for example, Veronika Decides to Die and The Alchemist talks about a certain perspective of life. These books use metaphor structure for the writing style. I realize that by reading books I could also improve my writing and reading skills, because I learnt new writing style, new literatures, and new vocabularies.
So far I’ve read books about leadership and thinking techniques, books such as 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, and Blink. These kinds of book help me improved my knowledge about the way human mind works in making decisions. I decided to keep on reading books, learn it and apply it into my life. Steps that I want to take to build on more knowledge is to read many types of books, not only novels but also educational books, books about histories, health, religions, designs and others.
