Education and success-Is there a correlation?

[manishsinghon]

Hi guys,

This is a topic which provides ample scope for dialectics. One can argue for and against it. One of the best examples is Bill Gates who went on to become the richest man in the world despite dropping out of hid education.

Closer home we have the example of Dhirubhai Ambani. What a person learns and what he really wants to do has no correlation many a times. A person succeeds only if he likes what he does.The argument for education will be that, in practice, it is your marks and qualifications that opens doors for you. While one can become successful without education, education brings about a richness in one's life.

One is able to appreciate many facets of life due to the extended knowledge that education provides. It opens a new window and provides a different perspective towards things, ability to distinguish between ethical and unethical, moral and amoral ....etc.

Please share your views…

I know many persons that have had excellent achievements in historical past and around me that certainly not attended school. You can also find many outstanding and qualified failed people. I believe education only provides us admire but with natural talent and creativeness success is guaranteed.
