What role does education play in our lives?


So we would be talking about how imperative it is to understand the critical role of education in our lives 

We often see students talking about how inefficient and impractical is our education system and yes I partly agree to that too, but we have to understand the dynamic role it plays for a person to develop some kind of knowledge and the various means to grab and analyse that information.


Education facilitates the basic thought process of a human being. People have to start understanding that education does not mean just knowledge.  They are two different aspects. We see that people have developed a thought process but when they are trying to articulate their thoughts that is where basic education comes into play.


We all have to accept the reality that our education system is not providing us with practical skills that are efficient  enough. We have to understand that it is us who have to educate ourselves in our own manner. Eduction can only show us a direction but how do we pave our path that totally depends upon us. 


People tend to believe that if a person is more educated, she would have more knowledge than a less educated person but I respectfully disagree with that because we see that life skills are related to education but they are not dependent on it. A person gets successful in his life not by getting the knowledge or information he gets successful as he understands how that should be applied practically.


Practicality is one of the major aspects that is missing out according to my point of view. If we compare two people- one who is a meritorious person with high degree of qualification but no practical work experience and another person with a little less qualification but they have all the practical knowledge, of-course the person with the practical experience would be prioritised. 


We have to understand that whilst both education and its application in real life  play an important role in the development of the person,  we can not rely on the system for our practical knowledge. A person who goes an extra mile does surely get rewarded for it.


Financial literacy is also very important because knowing how to manage and invest the money is as important as how to earn that money .

We have to know the difference between richness and wealth. 


They look same but dont mean the same, this is the part where passive income comes in. We have to understand that the only way to become truly wealthy is earning money while you are sleeping that means creating multiple income and passive income sources that will give us a long term benefit. 


When it comes to earning money I think we have to see that we would do what we like, if you can convert your passion into your profession there is nothing better because we say that money is not everything and that is partially true too because money can only buy materialistic happiness for some point of time but the real happiness comes from within. Money can only buy you your comfort which can get turned into your happiness .


I would like to conclude this by saying that we have to be independent in life if we want to do something big because we have two options either we keep blaming our system and then act accordingly or we try to be responsible for ourselves and do something so that it creates an impact and changes things and of course this cannot happen overnight, therefore, so we have to keep working hard and smart at the same time. Keep hustling and dont give up and take responsibility for your own life  instead of blaming others.
