Education is the Key


Fri, 2nd November, 2007 - Posted by Marenda


ed·u·ca·tion:
the act or process of imparting or acquiring general knowledge, developing the powers of reasoning and judgment, and generally of preparing oneself or others intellectually for mature life. —dictionary

A prerequisite to living life abundantly is making a commitment to life long learning, you must be a student of life. Education is the key that unlocks the doors of endless opportunities. When we think of education we often think of schools or college. A formal or conventional education is one way of acquiring knowledge… but learning should not simply begin or end there.

There are thousands of people walking around with degrees, certificates, and diplomas that are clueless. This is not to say that there is anything wrong with a formal education, the point is true education is obtained by those with a passion for learning and growing.

Every day represents a new lesson. To experience life abundantly we must strive to learn something new every day. How do we learn something new every day?

Look at your life and your daily experiences…the good, the bad, and the ugly. There is a learning opportunity in every situation and/or event that occurs in our lives. Living life abundantly means being proactive in improving your life… this means being self motivated, self determined, self disciplined, and oftentimes self taught.

“None of the world’s problems will have a solution until the world’s individuals become thoroughly self-educated.” — Richard Buckminster

“The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn.” —Alvin Toffler

“Only the educated are free.” — Epictetus

The Law of Integrative Complexity

The person with the widest variety of knowledge and skill in any area will have the most luck in that area. Expanded knowledge and skill intensify awareness and expand opportunity. —Brian Tracy

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER

Education is the key to living life abundantly.
