No matter our age, one of the best ways we can put ourselves in an environment to learn is to surround ourselves with mentors and others we can learn from. SUCCESS for Teens points out three ways to learn something new:
1. Study how it works and what to do.
2. Learn by actually doing it.
3. Find someone else who’s already mastered something you want to do. That person can teach from his or her experience.
