درد و دل من با سیستم آموزشی

Let me ask you a question

What springs to your mind

when you hear the word “education”?

What is education for you?

I know most of you may think about schools,

classes,

textbooks and so on.

They can in some ways

be called education

if you are into them.

But

WHAT IS REAL EDUCATION?

I know some parents

are watching this video…

How do you teach your children certain things?

Or generally speaking

how do you guys learn new things?

Let’s speak a little.

I was a total failure when I was in school.

The guy who everyone would expect

to fail at least some units.

Yeah,

that guy was me…

What was my problem?

Was I stupid or not talented?

I’m not sure

but I know one thing for certain…

everyone is talented…

every human being in the world

has some special talents.

You can’t force a fish to climb a tree

and judge it based on that.

So for me,

schools and colleges were the trees

that I as fish was trying to climb.

After years upon years of “Education”

what have I achieved?

Nothing…

just some pieces of fancy papers

called degree…

Yo

I get it…

I’m not here to disrespect anyone’s efforts

for going to colleges…

But I always asked myself a question.

What did I learn by taking these classes?

What were the super necessary skills for me

to learn from these classes?

Speaking in public?

Could I speak confidently in front of many people?

Being able to sell?

Could I sell a product to someone?

Not just selling but convincing someone

to trust my words…

like my future child.

Can I

convince my future child

to trust his daddy’s words?

Have I learned any of that?

Leadership?

could I lead my group

to fight for the same purpose

and have great teamwork?

Relationships?

could I find the right woman for myself?

Could I recognize

what is a healthy, happy,

functioning relationship for me?

Healthcare?

Could I take care of my body?

Survival skills?

If something horrible happened

could I take care of myself

and the people I care about?

And a thousand more beneficial skills

that I can put a question mark in front of…

the answer was pretty simple…

NO…No…No!

The only time I’ve felt the real education

was through independent studying.

I wanted to learn a new language…

I did it all by myself the way I wanted it.

By reading

and listening to something that I enjoyed.

I have improved my persuasion skills

by reading the books I’ve chosen

and found more appealing based on my purposes…

I learned about how to take care of my body

by taking courses related to this subject.

This is the real education.

You do it yourself.

You go for what you want.

Use the help of mentors

and applications like Zabanshenas to help you out.

But

at the end of the day,

you are the person who is responsible

for his own education.

Stay independent

and learn what you love to learn.

cheers!

By the way

today is the international education day.

Tell me

how do you educate yourself and others?

Write them for me!

Thank you!
