| Our projected cycle |
Education has different definitions which
all point out to the idea of acquiring knowledge, facts and skills either
formally or informally which aim at bettering the judgement of human beings
with regards to various respects of our lives. Whilst the sad reality of the
world we live in is the fact that the quality of education people receive
depends on their economic status it is also important to take note of the
importance of constructing education systems that specialise and effectively
master every individual’s abilities. Biblical speaking, each and every baby is born
with a talent that is meant to be their ultimate weapon to conquer this dark
cruel space we call the world, pardon the dark imagery… and this entails a
different set of qualities, strengths and attributes meant to equip us to
sustain ourselves and survive. Bearing this in mind, children are meant to go
through a universal process of learning that does not cater for individual
prowess but instead an all for all system. Wouldn’t it be better to start earlier
than high school to try and discover which strengths every individual child
has, would it not be helpful to focus on the child’s supreme attribute and
nurture it in order to garner that potential and have it mastered by the time
they reach teenage? Literacy and intellectual knowledge is important for
functionality in society, but it is not necessarily the ultimate source of
sustenance in the long run, it is barely enough
in today’s economy whichever part of the world you are. Education as a
bettering factor in an individual’s life should be maximised and therefore be
directed to the area individuals really need it, we are a bunch of people
walking around with a lot of information that we do not use in our respective
fields while lacking a competitive edge because we had limited time to acquire
knowledge that was really useful to us. Had we started focusing on our
strengths earlier we’d push our minds to break more ground and create more
concepts to better our professions and ultimately ourselves, think about it!
