do you really think that eduacation is the only way to be successful?

You can go to school for as long as you like but that does not necessarilly tell us there will be a job waiting at the end of the schooling. Some people have problems with tests and never do good on them and college would not be the right avenue for them. But they are excellent with hands on experience. And there are many manual labor jobs that can be taught when hired that no school will teach you. It really depends on what you want to do and how much training you need to pursue your dreams.

nop i dont think so because education is important but no as important as to be successful.take an example of bill gates, he didnt have interest at all in studies but today he is no 1 richest person in the worlds. about 95% of the worlds uses his operating system. the thing you want is to get an idea and implement that idea in such a way that everyone is impressed......

Hello jakeyangchao, Yes education is the basic step for getting success as education makes us civilized and makes us knowledgeable.Its not at all necessary that the person has to go for higher studies though i believe education up to school level is essential to succeed in life.

No, not at all times. There are people who are destined to be successful by means of hard work. When you are educated enough you can have the opportunity to be a successful but there is no assurance to that. Only people who work hard can be successful, whether graduate or not. Success is the fruit of our labor and it is the sweetest thing a life can have.

It is not the only way I think, because many scientist and wise men in history didn't going to school, because school was expensive. When you got a education it is most commonly that you will have a good life, because you have knowledge and you can stand for something. But school is really important nowadays for parents to there children, so that is why they push them.

I believe education is very important for individual grow up. It's better to let children stay at school. During seeking knowledge, he can ramp up his interest and decide whether to put effort on these hobbies. Nobody has interest when he/she was a baby.

No, I don't think education is the key to success. What is the key is the desire to succeed, coupled with the willingness to work toward it. I have known too many people with just a high school education who have done very well and too many with college degrees who are working tedious, low paying jobs. It's the attitude, not the education, that makes a person, and what a person is, is what makes them successful. Anyway, "success" is in the eye of the beholder. Earning ots of money sometimes means a complete failure as a human being. I'd rather my kids be happy and well adjusted than successful in the world's eyes and miserable.

It depends what they want to be successful in; also, it depends on the individual person. For example, some people have a natural gift or genius for some special thing. For them, education is not so Important. at the same time, it might still help. When I was young, I wanted to be an actor; and I went to acting school. But within a short while of doing so, I was working as a professional actor; I had a natural gift. Yet, I still believe even those with a natural gift like me benefit from training. For example, many of the world's most beloved actors subjected their art to rigorous training; and I think it was useful for them in terms of nurturing and sustaining their career. Some people are able to leave school with few or no qualifications and be colossally successful. But for the most part, I think education is a good thing. It's why parents push their kids: to prepare them for later life, to give them the power of knowledge, so they are better able to cope with life. And better able to achieve success. Many kids, and I was among them, have little aptitude for classroom learning. I left school early. But my parents pushed me to educate myself outside of formal education. I was pretty resistant; but they pushed and pushed. Finally, I passed a good amount of exams. Consequently, I've had opportunities offered to me that had I not passed the exams, I wouldn't. It's not the only way to be successful; but education in life is a great, great advantage.

I don't think that education is the only way to be successful. Some people go to school for long periods of time and when they graduate they can't find a job in their field. But then they are in debit and have to pay studetn loans so they start working at other places to pay off their debit. I think a reasonable amount of education is a good thing and can help me get work.
