What is the value of education in our lives?
What is the
difference between an educated and an uneducated person?
During the course of education,If
the students mug up the facts and forget after exams then that education will
not make any difference in their lives, in our society , in our world ( because
we are living in a global village) And more over it is like buying a
certificate with some percentage of marks at a cost of 1 yr or 2 yrs of time that depends upon the duration of the
course and looking for great things to happen in their lives, we can call them
as certified illiterates.
v Certified illiterate is a person who
has a certificate that he or she has done certain course or program but he or
she doesn’t have any knowledge on that.
So what is the main
purpose of education?
It is all about 3 things
1. Knowledge,
2. Attitude,
3.
Skill.
Knowledge: knowledge means awareness about something. Great people used
to say knowledge is divine i.e we need to improve it day by day. Knowledge
means it is not mugging and remembering the facts. We need to apply our knowledge
to do great things (or doing small things in a great way) otherwise it is of
like black money , no use for the people so it should be in use. Example: you
know the fact that smoking kills, but if still you are smoking and allowing
others to smoke means you are not applying your knowledge.
Attitude: the way you think and
feel about something or someone. It is of two types , one is positive attitude and other
is negative attitude. In each and every situation how you are thinking is very
important . if your attitude is positive that will be good for you and others
also. If your attitude is negative it will harm you and the society in
addition. For example if you are feeling
smoking is not at all bad and you smoke in a busy road that means you are
harming yourself and the others also who are inhaling that smoke. And you may
find many examples like this.
Skill : the ability to do something that comes from training ,
experience, and practice. The same thing will be done differently by different
people. And we do appreciate the best. So what is difference between the best
and the worst? , it is just practice. Many great speakers said they are not
great in the first time and what made them the great is practice.
So question yourself..
Do you really learning?,
Do
you really educating yourself?,
Do you really using your time productively ??
v Marks vs knowledge
Understanding the concept
gives you the knowledge, mugging up the facts gives you marks or grades in the
exams which gives success in your exams and may
makes you happy for some time(you feel.) like a drunkard person who will
be happy for some time , but once he comes out of the state of drunkenness he
will be normal. But knowledge makes you successful in your life, and gives you
life time happiness and this is the true happiness.
Successful person:
Everybody
wants to become a successful person? Don’t you?
Does the
past and present successful people scored high marks in exams?
Do they have
knowledge or marks?
Yes, they
have some knowledge and make use of that, and get succeed. so try to acquire
knowledge not marks. If you have marks without knowledge you can’t become a
successful person, before that you can’t become an educated person.
That means
the world needs the knowledgeable persons not certified persons.
The world
needs innovations not photocopies
so my dear
friends try to gain knowledge and do
great things and become a successful persons.
