Self Education VS Formal Education
Self Education VS Formal Education
Like myself, millennial’s of 21st century are faced with the dilemma of
differentiating and choosing between formal and self-education as means
to achieving success at an early age.
In actuality both self and formal education seek to enlighten a person but
with different purposes.
A general habit among people is they would only seek education and
learning on an as and when, need basis and mostly such behaviors are
driven by an expectation of rewards as a return for learning or developing
a skill(s).
Hence, an individual will not only feel more accountable for their own self
but also will make an effort to push his/her life in a futuristic direction
rather than getting caught in a vicious circle of tying learning to
materialistic gains.
Its critical to identify and let subject matter experts impart their knowledge
to you.
Having said , if one does not have access to formal education it too in no
way means that one can’t be successful- what’s important is that one must
continue to educate him/herself regardless of affordability and start
viewing life and learning more holistically.
