Learn in concert with other people. Listen to the senior citizens. Go online. Observe the habits and behavior of educated people. Choose a leader to follow or to role model for your life.
There are many ways to do this, all while continuing to self educate: Associate yourself with educated people, groups, discussions. Join a course or college to get a degree or few certificates at least. Audit college level subjects. That means, no exams, just all pure learning. Soak it up. Attend conferences, seminars, talks, etc. Just being among other people can give you a buzz, all while learning. They have lived through it all and have amazing memories of the things that were. You can, and will, learn a lot from them if you just take the time to sit with and listen to them. Should you feel that what they tell you is old hat and odd, put aside your biases and really listen. There are authentic human things to learn from older people, regardless of where modern technology sits at any one time. Join a MOOC (multi-online open course) or similar online learning courses. Many of these are free and will really push your learning beyond the simple. You can even interact with other peers learning and get and give feedback. Borrow from these people what you consider works well to improve the mind and understanding. Observe, learn, and apply what you see good from them. Who inspires you? Who has said and/or done things that really made you sit up and listen and want to do too? These are the people who make a difference in life and you can make use of their inspiration to further your own learning and relevance.
