Today, many many people enjoy studying, but why? When I ask this question to my frineds, some of them said that. We have to study because it is a part of out life, if we don't study, it means we cannot follow the modern life. Another said that, we have to study because study is the easy way to success in life. Many people success because they have a really good thinking and skills. Some others said that, we have to study because if we don't study we won't have ability to solve the difficulties. How about you? What do you think about it?

Study is the process of learning and knowing which is not restricted to our school textbooks. It is a holistic process and continues through life even the regular happenings and events around us and educate us in one or the other way. It would not be an exaggeration to say that the existence of human beings is fruitless without education. An educated person has the ability to change the world as we brimming with confidence and assured of making the right moves. Studies helps to open our minds and expand our horizon. It make us to understand our duties as a citizen and encourage us to follow them. Education is futuristic in character, in so far that ensures that the one who receives good education gets the secure future. Our productivity is increased by acquiring new skills and talents through education. We find our selves in the most competitive job, courtesy in the right training and education. We find our study expands our outlook and teaches us to be tolerant towards other views. It broaden our mental landscape and the is the way forward to greater lightment the ultimate goal of every human in life.

Learning new things is nearly always beneficial. I enjoy studying even if there is no real world payoff. Just exercising my brain and adding to my knowledge are good enough for me :)

people or students study for a lot of reason...some are just forced to study, and they don't like it , and they don't enjoy it of course..... but some are studying for the pleasure of it. because it satisfies them. their curiosity is fed by answers to their questions, which in turn , make them curious even more.... studying should always be something that one chooses to do because it gives him/her fulfillment. i hate it when a person has to study just because "he/sha has to". well i can't blame those people....they need a degree to get a good job.... it's a vain society where we live in.

In order for us to have knowledge and learn how to solve problems, discover, ability to think, identify our talents, learn good moral values and character, and all of these can be use in real life situation not only when we are already working or for occupation but in daily lives. For example in terms of negotiating in finances at least we could calculate the expenses to see how does the money flow and to avoid discrepancies as well as we could easily detect if we are negotiating with the person can be trusted or we are being fooled. In terms of history we must be aware of what is happening from the past the can be related for the current news or issue of the world.

We have to study because it is the best thing to do in order to have a happy and successful life. We need to study so we can have a good future. We also need this so we can teach the children to pursue their dreams..

Because we need to learn. We need to learned and study to face the world difficulties. We need to study and learned many things to get a good job for our family, and yes it is part of our everyday life. Do you imagined life without learning or if your parent didn't send you to school? I think if you illiterate or am I, It's so hard to live with this very competitive world so that we need to study hard.

Hi luukimlong, it would be fun and joy if whatever we study is that we are interested. Just like what I'm here frequently to improve my language and polish my writing skill. I would feel bored for sure is just for the sake to study only. I like learning new things which I could make use often in my daily life A few of my friends just follow the modern trend nowadays here to study different foreign languages like French, Korean and Japanese respectively. I won't waste my precious time to study language which I rarely use. I would forget them easily even I have passed the exam with excellent score. I have great interest to study something which I could apply in my daily life. I agree that the more knowledge and info we have acquired in aspects which are relevant to our working field the much easier to deal with our work. Surely this would benefit a lot to us when working Happy posting

Learning is an important part of life and if we have a passion for something that we may want to do there is a good chance that we are going to have to learn the ropes and the only way to do so is by studying. Studying is about having an education too and that is so very important because we may not all be destined for college degrees but a certain level of education will ensure us a much better future.

Hello! friend...This is a good and silly question. Good points, my friend... Well, you know. People need education not because they want a better life but due to the fact we need to learn. We need to be literate in every aspect in life. We need development, success, knowledge and skills to prosper in this life... Education give us also peace. Because we can't understand to each other. There is a threat of war and atrocities around us...

We study because we want to make it in life. Studying makes us more educated and thus we have more exposure to what's happening. When anybody is talking about something, at least we have the knowledge to talk and argue, smart arguments. Some people study just for the sake of studying and often get lost in their own world. They have no goals and when they study, they memorise everything, studying without understanding, which is what I find bad. I study to be more educated and learn more things while I still can. I don't want to study just for the sake of studying. Although studying can be irritating at times, especially during exam periods, it helps us overcome life's challenges and can empower and enable us to strive for the better.

I think the reason we have to study is because we want to change our present life. It is one way to find our future and to prepare for it. It is also one way to find out who really we are and what we really want to do in our future life.

hmm for me study just like get new experiences,and more knowledge that i never know before and for me study is not the way to success because people reach success not from study and success its come from our hard work not from study

With those conclusions i really agree at. There's really alot of reasons why we have to study. For some people they find it really fun and enjoying, and at the same time it's been a challenging matter for us to deal with. For other people get envy for those who can really have chance to finish their study for them to be able to succeed in life. And those things come into a conclusion of why we have to study.

we have to study because that is our preparation to our future. We have to study because we need to be part of the high social strata, so that then we can live a healthier and normal life, unprejudiced, undiscriminated. We have to study so that we can become more self reliant in the future, so we can become heads of the families int he future.

The reason why students have to study, and need to study is because that is how we learn the material. You aren't just studying for a test, you are learning. You are learning something about that subject. When I took my Shakespeare class, I learned that Shakespeare wanted to be a nobleman, and he wanted that title, he wanted status, and wrote as many plays as he could and wrote as much as he did to gain status for not only himself, but whole family, all of his money and earnings went towards his family and his status. He never really spend anything that earned because it all went back to his home.

When i was a kid the reason why i study first and foremost because my parents wanted me to study and all my friends at home goes to school so i too think i should go as well and it's fun going to school. But when i got older my reason changed..I went to school because i want to learn, i want to meet new friends, learning for me is fun, i get to have all the knowledge that one should get as part of growing up, we learn from small things to greater things. If it wasn't for schooling i thing i would even know how to read or write simple words. And without studying those things, it would be hard for a person to live life especially in the fast developing world we are living right now.

I remember I have read something about two friends talking to each other. Student 1 says, "I study so that I could get a work someday. How about you?". Student 2 answers, "I work so that I can afford to study". This is actually just a joke but it reflects how working students are in some countries that experience poverty. Anyway, I reason I study was to learn things and graduate so that I would be qualified enough to get a high salary job. Also, I chose to get a computer course because it interest me and lets me enjoy my computer related job. -)

I believe that we need to study so people won't look down on us even though we're not rich, also it is a back-up plan if we can't make our own business so we could just be employed in a company because companies rarely hire people who doesn't have formal education. And studying helps broaden our knowledge. And in school, we get to know a lot of friends and experience the best of life.
