4 Stages of Learning Process


I have seen in my life that people who are cheerful and persisting in their life attract more success than people who only depend on their qualifications and job title. I like children not because they are cute and sweet but because every child has tremendous desire to learn new things. I don’t know why, but when we grow up why we slowly crush our learning desire, we feel as if we have learned everything and anything new would only be a burden on brain and nothing else.
Once Socrates said- “King’s should be philosophers and philosophers should be King.” It is because it was his belief that philosophers have learning desire and that learning desire kills all other desires especially physical desires. According to Socrates the major trait of a King was his control on his physical desires which was possible only through immense amount of learning desire. Therefore, we can conclude that other name of a Leader is-Learner.
In a Learning Process a person goes from 4 stages-

1.      Enthusiastic Beginner- At this stage, a person is excited about the topic but has no knowledge.

2.      Confused Learner- This is the path-breaking stage because when we are excited about something and then when we try to learn about it two things happen- either we get encouraged or we get discouraged. The moment someone discourages us or we get a minor failure we slowly lose interest and go back to our past level. Learning is toughest at this stage.

3.      Capable but Nervous Learner- At this stage a person knows How to Work but is nervous about doing it on his or her own. A person does not have confidence and doubts his or her abilities continuously.

4.      Confident Achiever- A person learns the required skill and has practiced it many times. He tends to make fewer mistakes and delivers high-quality results.

Every one of us goes from these stages at one point of time. But only few cross the 4th stage and become special in life. These people don’t only gain respect for themselves but become inspiration for the society.
