Education

[Fara Chan]

Education is not the only key to success anymore, then we all be believe that, if we don't go to school, we can't make it, the country is something else, we should find all means to be a successful person in life, education is good, but we have to find all means to make it, country which a graduate is riding bike, someone that spend thousands of naira to go to the school, is now riding bike, imagine,

So is always good to invest in once self, than working under someone, which you won't have time for yourself,

Just an advise

It is not good to provide understanding for people that education no longer guarantees success, in terms of science we are appointed through this education, while success is our own way way in preparing all needs as support.
People will succeed when Chasing Something Seriously and have the Expected Targeting of Achievements, by Making Certain Efforts to Achieve What We Want.
The relationship between education and success is very close

Education doesn't have to be the proverbial college/university or (insert institution of higher learning here). I'd argue that education is critical no matter the field you choose to go to. It's not that any of us knew about cryptocurrency inherently. There was a learning curve before diving into the industry, ie we educated ourselves/

You don't need college/university to be successful, but you do need an education in something, whether that be through self learning or the professional schooling route.

Education is still the best powerful weapon to shift from ignorance into being knowledgeable, regardless if you learned it from schools or just from people around who educated you. Although it won’t make you instantly successful, but by educating yourself you gained knowledge, skills and confidence and that give you an edge to achieve your goals in life through positive thinking.

[boris singer]

Actually, education can be done anywhere without having to be fixated on the school in my opinion.
The problem at that time was quite natural because we needed a learning process there.
Entrepreneurship and being your own boss also have knowledge and we can't get it instantly because we need learning which means we have to be educated first even though it's not from school.

Regardless if we have taken formal education or not, as long as we gained learning, then it will be a great factor in determining our success in life. Those educated people clearly has an advantage because they easily get the best opportunities in life, while those non-educated ones will always struggle to find opportunities that will improve their lives. Although education is not the only key to succeed in life, but somehow being educated is already a gained success or achievement in a man’s journey.

This can also be said but when we are in social life and when we are faced with a life that of course requires work and money in it, I don't think school is enough.
Indeed, in this case there are several things that can be done when we have education because indeed when this happens at least we can change the ethics in ourselves to be better.
But on the other hand, when we are only fixated on education that only relies on clear theory, this is something that really cannot be used in life that requires something more there.
An example might be for myself. I am a bachelor's degree graduate in one of the universities in my country but when I just stuck there when I graduated I didn't get anything because of the fact that when we live in this harsh world a degree in education is definitely not enough especially with the number of graduates today, I even now an employee in an institution where my boss is someone who doesn't even go to school.
From this it does not mean that my education is not important, but the fact is that education is not a guarantee for someone to change one's fate but there must be other things that must be built such as relationships, knowledge in business, etc.

If you become a parent, are you certain that your children will become successful if you don't give them proper education?

Please stop discouraging people to not go to school because it is not needed to become successful in life. The education system in your country could not be the same to others, maybe in your country schools are not giving children the proper education that they should have that is why you think like that.

For me, having a diploma and getting a proper education gives is still better because it will give us wider range of opportunities. If you combine the traits of being educated and being resourceful in life then you are still above in many aspects than those who only become successful because of sheer resourcefulness.

The thing about being a parent (I am not one but I really pray to god every day that I will become one soon hopefully) that you could provide whatever you can and still fail. That's the scary thing about having kids, you could raise amazing people and your kids could be people who helped the world be a better place, you could most likely raise people who are just ordinary, grow up, study, have a job, work there for 30+ years, retire and die, just like billions of people do every day.

Or you could raise very bad people and that scares me, even the most horrible people could have ordinary parents like us, it is really not the fault of the parents all the time. So, it's a bit scary and education could be given amazingly or not at all and kid could turn out to be anything.

Education is very important - it helps opening the door of opportunity and that is how the nations are built and that is how nations are created.
We have noticed in our life - that educated people helps creating the society and they deal with the things better than those little less educated

Not only opening the door of opportunity but also giving you the intellect on dealing up with things not only on small scale but on bigger ones because if you do really lack education then you would definitely be

having big problems on facing on.I dont know on why people do really consider out on having no education or it isnt really that much important on someones success?

You do lack knowledge even on simple things will really be putting you on tough decisions and dealing up with something and the rest about making some alternative
when it comes to investment will really be a help.

Just an advise

It's hard to call that advice, because it's a bit hard to decipher what you're even trying to say. I assume it is that not everyone learns the same way and some people might be better off avoiding the huge expense of university. It is true, that university is always broadcast as the one and best answer that everyone should be striving to achieve - but it's a bit fake to suggest that. Not everyone is cut out for that hardcore academic life and there is nothing wrong with that. Some people will be content learning on the job and possibly working their way up through the ranks that way. Others will be better off with some hands on type training schemes which are run in a school like system. Tying a young person into tens of thousands, maybe even hundreds of thousands worth of debt is taken far too lightly these days.

Op, when you say about education you have to be specific, that is because no one will likely be successful without education. Let me assume you meant formal education. Well it is not everyone that requires formal education. You can get educated informally by learning skills. You can do that by not even attending any institution . What you need is to be smart and to be adaptive to the environment, focused on
evolving technology like bitcoin, AI and you will be successful. Go get degree if you want to be a medical doctor, lawyer, engineer  or other professions that requires degree

[Finestream]

True, Education is not the only key factor to success since you need money, perseverance, skills, hard work, and innovative ideas in order to jumpstart your success. But education would be your first stepping stone in your journey to success.

Actually, education can be done anywhere without having to be fixated on the school in my opinion.
The problem at that time was quite natural because we needed a learning process there.
Entrepreneurship and being your own boss also have knowledge and we can't get it instantly because we need learning which means we have to be educated first even though it's not from school.

One thing that is certain if you get good education either from a good school or even through self-education, you will always create more opportunities and higher chances to succeed. Even in entrepreneurship, that requires education on how to sustain the sales target and continue to see the growth of the business. If you are determined all the time and would always do things at its best, then it’s another bonus that will make you more successful in life.

Formal education is a must according to me, if not you need to have focus on something from the very young age. With that it is possible to learn out of the market as well as the experience we gain through different failures. When a person have got formal education he can start with some sort of expertise knowledge with which he can lower the chances of failure (End of the day it is all about the hard work and smart work). A person who doesn't have have formal education can master marketing, but he can't be good with development.

It all boils down to what we mean by formal education. If we really have a good definition of it, we could say that it's a must or not. If formal education is learning another man's language and culture, then it is not a must. I have been in a country where part of the people in that country studies trading of goods and they groom their children through the process called apprenticeship, and they are the richest part of the country. Richer than others who believed so much in formal education. I am not against formal education, but it is not must, especially for countries where it has lost its flavour.

I won't deny it because this is indeed the right thing but on the other hand things like that seem like now it will still be difficult even though the opportunity is still there.
The reason is simple, we live in a harsh world with competition so that educational capital alone will not be enough. How many people now with higher education degrees are unemployed and how many people really regret what they are doing in education.

Education is indeed very important and very good to do but on the other hand we also cannot be naive that education is not a guarantee for us to be successful because obviously there are many other factors in this.

True. a few days ago I read an article that many of the world's big companies such as Google do not make education the main requirement for hiring employees, but they prioritize experience and skills. Unfortunately this does not apply to all companies because most companies in my country still make education the main requirement for hiring employees.

Experience is the most sought after thing but the problem is that when the criteria are used as a benchmark, it will be difficult for job seekers, especially fresh graduates there.
But indeed, even though the important experience of education is also one of the things that is indeed a factor for people to be able to achieve good things because at least with education they have been filled with some knowledge that is good enough to support their lives even though it is only basic.

So Google did really have some opposite way of hiring people which i would say to be that relevant considering that skills do really matters even if you dont have a degree but in todays reality or casual things
then we can really say that educational attainment is already that standard and if you dont have these qualifications then you would really be having a hard time on finding a job.
Also competition is really that high and this is the reason why i do see even degree holders or whom do finish their studies do end up on having no job.
It doesnt really assure on getting a job even if you do hit up this state and it is indeed the truth.

[Silberman]

But indeed from the beginning, especially when we were young, it was clear that education was the main focus but the problem is that when we grow up we can't think about other things such as entrepreneurship or other fields because we always think about when we are educated we will get a decent job, but the fact is it's not that simple. and we are still naive to continue to say education is the thing that makes it possible to get a job when the main focus of education is not for a job.

Education is necessary in order to thrive in a world in which you need to compete with others workers from all around the world, however I understand students when they complain about the education they are receiving since a great deal of the subjects they are being taught are useless or have very little to do with what they want to do, while important topics like managing our finances or how to create a business are left untouched when they are incredibly important.

This is a fact that cannot be hidden because it is indeed what is happening nowadays when many students complain about what they did during their education. I don't know about education in other countries, but for my country, the system is still very monotonous and more focused on theory so that the mindset of the students is still the same which always prioritizes theory instead of practice.
Even though when we grow up sometimes theory alone will not be enough because basically practice and experience can make them better than just relying on theory.

I think we can assume that things are pretty much the same almost everywhere around the world, with the only exceptions being the best schools which are also the most expensive ones, so like always there is a very huge difference between the education that those that are rich receive and those that are middle-class or poor receive instead, it is because of this that people need to take things into their hands and never assume that whatever they want to learn is going to be taught to them at school and instead they should look for that information by themselves

So is always good to invest in once self, than working under someone, which you won't have time for yourself,

Just an advise

Collaboration can take the two opportunities you mentioned, education will inherit knowledge not only thinking about work, here many people have a misunderstanding about education.
Investments do not always provide an overall return. Without education, you, me and they also will not know what investment is?
technology is learned based on knowledge, very rarely people master technology only self-taught, therefore education is important in human life.
While opportunities through investment and business, depending on how you prepare, regardless of the opportunities and capital available

[BRINIRHA]

Knowledge is very important for success. but knowledge does not have to be obtained from formal education such as in school. indeed there are many cases such as a graduate who is unemployed or becomes an ordinary employee. and conversely there are people who are successful as bosses even though they don't go to school. actually these two people from different backgrounds are all educated. but the way they get their education is different. one in a formal way. and one in an informal way.

why is the informal one sometimes superior? That's because people who get non-formal education are those who get knowledge from the life experiences they live. they practice science directly in life. they are not good at theory. but they are good at action or practice in the field. that is the reason sometimes people with non-formal education are superior.

people who are formally educated but can not achieve success is because they are too focused on theory and they do not know about the reality on the ground. sometimes the realities of life are more difficult than the theory in books.

True, a high education and academy does not guarantee success, I am currently around 30 years old, and I have 2 very different school friends, the first friend did not graduate from high school, the second friend graduated from college abroad, the friend who did not graduate currently has business with about 40 employees, while overseas graduates work in offices earning about $500 per month.

It means that your two friends are actually both successful in their respective fields even though the categories are different, but both of them should be grateful because they still have the opportunity to work and make money according to the struggles they have gone through. The point is that everyone needs better and more mature education so that they can do business and can also work where they want because there is no way to develop themselves without going through the necessary education.
