well we can't keep thinking that if we don't study ,some miracle will take place and boom we are successful .this only happens in our dreams.to be successful ,yes for many famous personalities who are high school drop outs made history with their inventions ...
but for inventing itself they took a lot of effort and dedication to do it .again they later on worked hard and knew the importance of education ,gained knowledge and then invented things for us.nowadays without education surviving in this competitive world is almost impossible .if you see a list of successful people now they are all educated .how would you survive without knowing anything ,even if it is basic knowledge? who will tell you?will you keep depending on others?what if you're smarter than you think ,but without education you can't proceed?don't you regret not studying? aren't you aware of the consequences?
its time to realize the reality of life and give importance to education .no college is a waste of time or money. you are going there to study and gain knowledge,not for sitting simply .i don't see how its a waste of time .so go gain knowledge,work hard and see the outcome by yourself
always remember that :
education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world -nelson mandela
good luck
