Education began when we were very young, and we have been instilled with the idea that we must receive education since we were young. I have always agreed with this point of view. Until one day, I experienced something that changed my mind and made me wonder whether it is worthwhile to receive an education. what exactly will education bring us? Does what we learned really apply to life?
This is something that happened in China, and it is very common. College students start to worry about their jobs after graduation. The majors they studied during college are not practical, and because they do not have any work experience, it is difficult for them to find a good and decent job. There are countless examples in the news, and we often see them in real life, My father’s schoolmate has extremely good grade while in college, but after he graduated, he couldn’t find suitable job, In desperation, he find a job that has nothing to do with his profession and has a very low salary.
So, from kindergarten to university graduation, we spend one third of the day at school, one third for sleeping, and the remaining one third is our free time, and these times we have To spend a part of it for learning, in the end, we may only have two or three hours left when we can really use what we like. We spent so much money in 20 years, spent so much time, and ended up with a meager salary. Does it worthwhile for us to invest so much time in learning?
Some people may say that I am too extreme, and there are successful examples, right? But have you ever wondered how many successful people account for the seven billion people in the world?
Of course, it does not mean that receiving education is not good. The benefits of receiving education are also many. Let us understand the truth, understand the etiquette, and learn how to communicate with people… The financial, legal and other systems are also supported by education.
But there are some courses, it should be said that there are many courses. We don’t actually need them, such as mathematics, biology, chemistry and so on. We won’t use them at all unless we have a professional need after graduating from university.
