Learning
Continuous desire to acquire knowledge.
Learning is the constant desire to acquire new knowledge and to better understand the world, other people or yourself. People who value learning enjoy the process of not knowing and gradually closing that gap, whether by reading, studying formally or experimenting on their own. This value usually translates into active curiosity: asking, researching and questioning easy answers. Unlike pure curiosity, learning emphasizes the accumulation and consolidation of knowledge over time. People who prioritize it rarely stagnate professionally, because they see every stage of their life as an opportunity to keep developing.
