Knowledge Is Power

“Don't let school interfere with your education.” —Mark Twain

It's a common belief that learning and studying virtually ends with your last year of formal education. Nothing could be further from the truth. Our education system certainly has its place. Hopefully, elementary and high school teach us the basics of reading, writing and arithmetic, along with good general knowledge of history and science. College will probably teach you information in a more specialized field of study and graduate school even more so. Hopefully, you will also learn some organizational skills, discipline and independence along the way. What the formal education system does not do is teach and prepare you for the real world challenges that you will encounter. Thankfully, there are books and resources available on almost any topic. You can study any subject and learn how to be competent and successful in any important area in your life or field of endeavor! . . .
