The Importance of Education

Education is beautiful. Education the most valuable,and intangible asset you can possess. What makes education a beautiful, valuable, and intangible asset? The answer is each person has knowledge and important information that should be shared with others, and can be used in a positive way.  Education can be formal or informal. For example: If you know how to clean floors, clothes, automobiles,or even teeth. You can take that information, teach others how to do what you know how to do. Then you can add your own flare to your teachings. By adding your own flare, you have created a difference in how to clean.

Your ideas are beautiful. However, the concept of educating others about what and how, you do ordinary things differently. Will empower you to increase your earning potential, and patent your ideas. Now you see how Education is the most valuable and intangible asses each of us possess.

The choice is yours. what you do with your formal or informal education is up to you. REMEMBER, Marlene says: make it happen.

  1. Good job sis. I want to thank you for motivating me to go after my Associates degree. I truly appreciate you for being there for me and helping me along the way. On the flip side, because of you pushing me to get my degree, I am up late at night doing my assignments. Just kidding. LOL! Can you help me with my organizational and prioritizing skills?
    Keep up the good work.

  2. Let me first say,you have taken the first step toward organizing and prioritizing your skills. You made the decision to return to school. More important you enrolled in classes, and started taking the classes. Many people decide to return to school, enroll in classes; but NEVER take the first class. The first step is the biggest.
    You are past the halfway point. Which means you have organized your personal and Work life to allow your education to become the priority. Working and going to school is NOT an easy task. The late night studies and report are expected. What you are experiencing is known as the "Opportunity Costs"(what you give up, to acquire something better) You are giving up sleep, vacation, TV,and family time to make a better life for you and your family.
    Stay Focused on your goal during this critical time. Make a personal calender for yourself, incorporate benchmarks, and cross off each day of school you complete. This will be your visual motivation for two reasons: You can see how many days of schooling you have completed. Also,how many days you need to reach your desired goal.
    Remember, anything worth having requires hard, diligent work. This is your biggest project COMPLETE IT! REMEMBER these important six words: Opportunity Costs, Opportunity Costs, Opportunity Costs. Remember, Marlene says: Make It Happen.
