Education
Education does not necessarily mean you go to school. Obviously you need a teacher, but that teacher could be yourself. Some of the smartest people in history failed/dropped out of school or didn't even go to school. Organized education has boundaries and to me can only get you so far. You need to be educated outside of the classroom as well. You need to expand your education through books and real life experiences. You can't be as successful if you are only "book smart". Outside of school, there are no limitations. You can learn about anything you want. That is what education should be like. Why go to a class that you're "required" to be in if you have absolutely no interest in. I have learned from last semester that you're only successful if you are actually interested in the subject. Education's biggest problem is that students only learn inside school. Most do not read or try to educate themselves about the outside world and that is the best education you can get.
