Never let an exam result decide your faith, there're so many ways one can be educated

So you want to get a degree! Why? Let me tell you what your parents'll tell you; MAKE ME PROUD, it increases your chances of getting a job, provides you with an opportuinity to be successful, your life'll be a lot less stressful, education's the key.

Now lets look at the statistics; steve jobs, richard branson, oprah winfrey, mark zuckenberg,
henry ford, steven spielberg and bill gates. now here comes the coup to grace, looking at these individuals, what's your conclusion? Neither of them been successful ever graduated from a higher learning institution. Now some of you'll
protest like,"you know money's only the medium by which one measures worldly success" some of you
even ve the nerve to say, "i dont do it for the money". So what're you struggling for? To work for a charity, or do you need more clarity? Look back at the statistics... All i'm saying is that if there was a family tree, hardwork and education'll be
related, but school'll probably be a distant cousin but some'll claim that school expands your horizons and your visions, well tell that to malcolm X whom dropped out of school and he's well renown for what he learned in the prison. "it does a fool no good to spend money on education" WHY? Because he has no common sense.
Education's about inspiring ones mind not just filling their head.some of you only realise this after countless night in
the library,falling asleep in between piles of books, memorize equations, facts and dates right down to the letter, half of which you would never remember and half of
which you forget straight after the exams and before the start of the next semester, asking anyone if they ve notes for the last lecture, you often find your self running to class just so you could find a spot which you could rest your head and fall asleep without making a scene, that's all the time you spend in the university chasing your dreams and then after nights of a dead mind, you then find my self with a
queue of half awake student zombies waiting to hand in an assignment, maybe that's why they call it a dead-line. Then
after 4 years or even more of mental suppression and frustration, you start moving around looking for job. Now
am not saying that school's evil and there's nothing to gain all i'm saying's understand your motives and re-assess your aims, cause if you want in a job working for someone else then help yourself, but then that'll be a contradiction because you wouldn't really be helping yourself, you'll be helping somebody else, there's a saying which says,"if you don't build your dreams someone else'll hire you to help build theirs. Redefine how you view education, understand its true meaning, education is not just about taking facts from a book or someone elses opinion on a subject, look at
it, picassa was educated in crayon art, shakespear was educated in the art of poetry, colonel sanders was educated
in kentucky fried chicken (KFC). Don't let an exam result decide your fate, there's more than one way in this world to be an educated man.

Bro, exactly what have been thinking... Exactly what is happening in my school, students only read to pass exams, they read and can't explain. .. They don't even understand what they are reading. A friend once told me "i am brilliant, buh it's not for reading books"... Nice write up bro, keep this up.

Thanks a lot and God bless you sir
