In the recent past days, I've been chatting with a new friend of mine, about academics and qualification; and how it shapes an individual's life. I dont know what you call the thing you put beside the eyes of the horses when they are set for the race. Whatsoever it may be, they are meant for them so they are not distracted by the green grass on the pathway. Our education system is that way !!
We are too lazy for the opportunities that come our way. We ignore and race ahead towards what we call as "CAREER" which is already set in our minds. We dont dare to think beyond that. Right from 8th grade onwards they know what they want out of thier Life. They want to become doctor, engineer, architect, lawyer, blah and blah. This is because our education system has trained us to be so. The other day I read a quote on t-shirt which read, "I was born intelligent, but education ruined me". So true !!
Ironically nobody wishes to become Bill gates, Warren Buffet or Ambani...If you really look into the fact files, you'll see that most of the millionaires and billionares had just one thing in common, "they are all school-dropouts and under-performers". Also if we closely see, we also realize that the Engineers, Doctors, Lawyers, or any professionals, they are all working directly or indirectly for these school-dropouts and under-performers. In other words, "its a bunch of school-dropouts who are movers and shakers of the world economy".
