You know, my faith in education is beyond conviction, and this is largely a result of my own development through the school system, professional training, and ultimately self-education on personal development. Reflecting on your own school days you may remember this kid who was in your class, and doing so bad in almost all class works, like reading, writing, numbers etc., and it didn’t look like there was any future going forward along the path of education. This is a scenario that could so easily fit my situation during my earlier days, but I managed to pull through this haze of uncertainty in my educational path. I later discovered that each time a situation or a need arose, and calling for my response, there’s always only one effective way to manage, and that is the way of seeking first to understand the nature of the situation or need at hand and choosing to learn from the experiences of others, and then act based on knowledge acquired to create solutions. Once I got to that level where my reading skills improved, I began to rely heavily on written text i.e. written notes at learning centres, but most importantly from books, to transform and upgrade my mental system. This approach gave me a confidence boost, as I began to notice that by opening up and embracing the learning process, to seek for solutions, there’s always some progress in terms of creating new and better outcomes in life. So, I made this a key foundation in my life, which allowed me to stay on course throughout my professional development, which saw me attain a university first degree, followed by a masters and doctorate degree in earth sciences. Interestingly, for the latter two programmes I picked on specialities that I had little background on but through learning from books, articles, and as well connecting with other experienced professionals in the field, I was able to succeed in my studies. In a nutshell, this is where all my conviction on the learning process emanated from, and I believe it’s a universal principle available to all to master and make the most out of life.
