97 year old graduate!

From ABC Australia news 5th May 2012: A 97-year-old New South Wales man will set another world record today when he graduates from Southern Cross University at Lismore.

Allan Stewart from Tea Gardens, north of Newcastle, will graduate with a Master of Clinical Science - Complementary Medicine, making him the world's oldest university graduate.

All credit to Mr Stewart for this impressive feat. It doesn't matter what level of learning you wish to follow - find something that piques your interest and just do it. The brain is exercised, not by doing more of what you already do; the brain grows with NEW ideas. It needs to be fed fresh, tasty food. The best thing about mental stimulation is that it is independent of your physical state. 

Make a pledge to yourself to learn at least one thing - big or small - every day.
