We all remember that moment on the assembly ground where a teacher or principal in an oversized suit and 1992 model shoes would be telling us education is the key and without it WE CANNOT SUCCEED.
Fast forward to today now that we are all older. Is it true or that thing was just bobo to make us all pass exams and leave the system with good grades.
In my take, education is no longer the main key. Looking at the world today most of the successful businessmen hold little to no formal education, while their mates were chasing degrees, they were chasing the bag and building business empires, then they now employ them as Financial Advisors, Lawyers, Engineers and many more. This is not hearsay, one of my dad's bosses way back graduated from Uni at the time I was in my sophomore year, doing what degree guys, his very first! Some eventually won't go back to school and they're keep on cashing out and leave the tasky areas to their trusted staff.
Why do they still employ educated people? Because educated people are the missing salt in their stew. In essence, education is still a key because it can get one employment and make one stand out with grace and the right skillset.
In my opinion, Education is very essential and it cannot be over-emphasized. In today's world, the pen is still mightier than the sword or bullet because with one to ten forgeries you'd make more than most criminals in their lifetime and luckily you might not get caught.
School is not a scam and I realized that while coming back from a journey and the Holy Spirit show drew my attention to some companies beside each other, and HE said to me look at those companies do you know that with your course you can work for all of them. P.S They're all Tier One firms by the way.
IT WAS CLEARLY CONFIDENCE AND CERTAINTY OVER ARROGANCE.
Education therefore is not just restricted to the formal one we receive in schools, to make IMPACT YOU MUST BE LEARNED.
MY CLOSING WORDS, LEARN A SKILL AND BE GOOD AT IT, TAKE SCHOOL SERIOUS, GET THAT FIRST CLASS OR 2.1, NETWORK SO YOU CAN HAVE FRIENDS THAT CAN GROW YOUR NETWORTH, THEN LASTLY TRUST GOD!!!
