Education system is broke for entrepreneurs

in #education8 years ago

If your not were you want to be its simply because you dont know something!
Once i got this my paradigm shifted! Heres why...

Back some time ago whilst i was at high school and looking back now, the schools are teaching children from high school upwards the biggest pile of shit! Yes you read it clear...

I feel there is a massive problem in schools today as they try to adapt for the modern age we live, teaching our future leaders default subjects, the existing one size fits all approach to education and teaching simply does not work, this even continues through to the university system.

In a world were everyone is connected and the rise of social media and ( consumerism ) without the basic understanding and foundation many people go on to living a life of debt living pay check to pay check or getting into trouble with the law, dissatisfied by either their family life/ self image or social status and this stems from the programming that exists within schools.

Family conditions, upbringing or childhood has nothing to do with you are and who you can become, once people are encouraged, shown a path and have enough self worth in themselves & an understanding that anything we can believe we can achieve our prospective changes, opportunity is all around us but through conditioning many fail to see this.

I would like to see the main stream education system sidelined by a curriculum giving both parents and kids the voice and freedom to choose things of interest relating to aspects of todays society which are in demand for young adults. Skills that they will use in later life which will have a positive inpact for themselves and others for example money management, business skills, entrepreneurship, self confidence, effective communication, coding, sales and negotiating to creative areas of arts and music.

We are programmed from school not to think outside the box but instead memorize things in a certain way, because they have always been this way does not mean they are correct, skills that are aimed at specializing us to do specific tasks. I feel specialization in any area of life limits your abilty to grow in all aspects especially as an entrepreneur or someone who wants to do things on their own terms.

We all have unlimited potential and i hope that this message hits a chord with someone at the time when most needed and know that you have a voice.

I will finish this post with a quote from Martin luther king jr.
