The Education of a man should not be the basis for his success. But instead, it should be based on his hard work and endurance during hardships. Education is not the only key to success. It is only one of the many existing keys that open the door to success. When somebody is educated, it does not mean that he becomes successful in the blink of an eye, education is a mere stepping stone.
Even a man who has never attended school is educated. He is educated from other things such as life experiences. When you say 'educated' it does not mean you went to school. Take Henry Sy for example. He never finished school, but he now owns hundreds of malls worldwide. Henry didn't have to learn geometry, chemistry and physics to do that. He depended on his hard work and perseverance. Just as the saying goes, when there's a will, there's a away.
Another great man was my grandfather. He didn't finish his studies, he stopped in grade school. But thanks to the wisdom God gave him and all his hard work, he was able to build a company. And if it weren't for his perseverance, the company could have fallen decades ago. Instead, he kept pushing on, especially during the hard times. Now, the company is more than 60 years old and is standing tall.
A lot of times, we underestimate our own minds. We feel that the only way it could work is if we fed it with knowledge. But no, our brains are still more than capable of working without all that. We adapt and learn by ourselves. And with that wisdom, hard work and God in our lives, we can be successful.
