Take the Opportunity to be Educated
You don't need fancy highbrow traditions or money to really learn. You just need people with the desire to better themselves.That was an apt quote from the 2006 movie, ACCEPTED. It is true. The key to real education is the ardent desire to learn. Thus, when I was still on my 'tour-of-duty' in the corporate world, I am a vocal advocate of continuing education for employees, especially young professionals and those in leadership or supervisory positions.
No one can equal with an educated and experienced employee. He/she has always an advantage over others who are lacking any of those or both. And thank heavens, that today you do not have any more excuse to get a good education. Most known and major universities and colleges worldwide have established their online schools and are offering accredited online degrees.
What does this means? It means that the opportunities to be educated to pursue other field of expertise are available to anyone. In fact, if money may pose a problem, there are also online degree scholarships you can apply to. So you do not need to go into the trouble of creating your own college like what they did in that movie, it is up to you to grab these opportunities. Take these opportunities, for after all, according to Aristotle:
Education is the best provision for old age.
And should I add, your best provision for employment.
