Online college courses often have more classes available in more diverse fields. One of their greatest advantages is that they allow students to study at their own pace and at their own convenience. Prices vary between schools, but are typically very reasonable. Courses taken online may apply toward a graduate degree.

Online articles are often replete with cutting-edge information on just about every topic. A simple Google search on your chosen topic plus word "article" can yield pages and pages of material. Take everything you read online with a grain of salt though, especially if you don't know qualifications of author. Though you may not be a student in traditional sense of word, reading online articles can help you stay abreast of changes in your industry and get ideas for future research.

E-books offer same advantages as articles while providing more in-depth information. Authors of e-books, because of time investment involved in writing them, usually have a higher standard of qualifications; again be cautious with how much merit you give any information without consulting more authoritative sources. E-books are typically more inexpensive than regular books; depending on your industry, they may even be free.

Industry and company websites often serve as portals to huge amounts of information. The information presented often comes from scientific or statistical studies, so level of reliability can be greater than other sources of information online. If you're really strapped for time, finding a website you like and going there each day can save you from having to spend time to search internet for new information.

In end, continuing students are those people who take time each day to provide best service or product that they can. Spending just 20 minutes each day reading online can go a long way toward that goal.

10) Keep on writing, don’t stop too soon—the solution will come!

11) Always carry writing materials with you. Who knows when you will be inspired to write? I have a tiny pocket-size notebook that I carry on nature walks.

12) Pray on paper—write letters to God.

13) Write His answers.

When your children see you writing regularly, they will want to begin their own journal. A sentence or two is sufficient until fluency in handwriting is achieved. However, do not limit them - let them write as much as they want. Suggest prayers, answers, daily activities (a diary), goals, and dreams in their notebook or journal. Provide thought-provoking questions, such as “What is God telling you?” With many different types of writing, I have found it easiest to use one big spiral notebook, dating each entry and also giving each a title, such as Journal, Reviews, Goals, Questions, Answers, Letters to God and so on. Your children could use some of above titles as well as subject titles, such as Current Events, in which section they would write their thoughts on a news event, election or candidate.

Journaling is enjoyable for both parent and child. You will be amazed at its life-changing power while your child will reach writing expertise much earlier.
