What is true education?

True Education

True education is self-driven.

True education is all about self-discovery.

True education is about developing a plan to navigate to the right destination.

True education is about seeing the world as it is to find opportunities to make it better.

True education is about learning from those with the results we want to achieve in life.

True education is about getting the right information to improve the quality of our thinking and decision making.

True education is not about credentialism, diplomas, certifications, and passing theoretical tests.

True education is not about what others want for us but getting the skills we need to meet our needs and wants.

                                          

Why is a true education more important now than ever before?

1.      Speed of change. Technology accelerates the speed of change. What we learn today is obsolete tomorrow.

2.      Complex and problematic world. The interconnectedness of the world requires us to deal with situations involving complex individuals and problems in a multitude of locations and cultures. It is critical to make the decisions right instead of just making the right decisions.

3.      Learn from the right sources. It is paramount to learn from and follow a multitude of individuals that have achieved true success. A mentor is critical to provide the right perspective on why to learn, who to learn from, and what to learn.

4.      Problem solving speed. It is critical for anyone to have the ability to go quickly from problem identification to the right solution. A principle based true education provides lasting solutions to complex problems.

5.      Upgrade our thinking. The proper thinking leads to the right decisions and the right results. It is critical to think like an entrepreneur and owner in all that we are involved in.

6.      Best investment we can make. An investment in a true education is the best investment, not an expense as most individuals think. It is tax deductible if you own your business.

7.      Self-realization, happiness, and joy. When we fall in love with learning we fall in love with life. Happiness comes from within, from satisfying the yearning for learning.

The biggest revolution and opportunities in the next few decades will be in education.
