Teaching me how to read from an early age. When I was for, I asked my mom to teach me how to read and by the age of five I was already reading.

I have not been formally educated in many things that I know nowadays (the english language is one of them, albeit far from perfect), but knowing how to read from an early age helped me enjoying the activity and knowing how to find information independently.
