Success has changed its meaning through ages. Nowadays days, success generally means one to be financially affluent. So does education help one to get financially affluent? Well, in some cases yes but in most cases NO. With rising inflation and stagnant salary that doesn't happen. Now if you are lucky enough to be Sundar Pichai, that's quite a tough luck. And as per education goes, there are a lot of sorts of education. The one who is financially educated (not necessarily has to be a school goer) will be successful IF you consider success synonymous with being financially affluent.

According to my opinion, I'd like to state that Education is an essential factor in each and every individual's life. Education gives us knowledge, awareness, facts and truths. In addition to this knowledge should be given to the students in the correct manner. However, the secret of learning new things can be gained not only through education but also through our failures. And there is a saying that "failures are the stepping stone to success. Furthermore, success doesn't come not only through education but if we have a passion towards our dreams even we can succeed in our life.

I Google both words, EDUCATION and SUCCESS to understand their meanings deeply.

EDUCATION is a process of receiving or giving systematic instructions, especially at school or university.

SUCCESS is the attainment of wealth, respect or fame in the society.

When I graph these two words, they tend to have a point of intersection. To be successful, one has to have a goal to accomplish. And if one's goal is to achieve wealth, position or fame he/she must learn and practice the systematic procedures to achieve their goal, either in a formal training or from a personal mentor/s.

Education is a key factor of our life. It is important in everyone's life. If we compare an educated one over uneducated then we see the difference between them. Education gives us moral, Education is not only that what we read in books but also it is the moral values which are very important in our life. How to live, How to behave, How to talk. All these we taught by our parents or teachers comes under education only. And without morality, good behavior, you cannot be successful in your life. So, in my opinion, we really need the education to be successful in our life.

Education helps you to gain knowledge and potting it to action gives you understanding of that knowledge. First you should have a goal or target that you are aiming for. When you reach that goal it is the beginning of your success. But you must continue to set new goals until you reach your ultimate idea of success for yourself. It is self preservation. Everyone's opinion of success may differ but no doubt it is based on some level of financial gain and accomplishment. And without an education, regardless of how you obtain it you can rarely attain that success.

I think it is completely crazy to say education is not a key to success I mean look at the celebrities who went back to school because they felt in complete without education take Michael Jackson, for example, he made so much money at a very fragile age but felt incomplete you know because he knew by then that education is a key to various doors. I mean you cannot just wake up one day and say you want to be a scientist when you, on the other hand, don't even know how to mix chemicals together [my point is that education is the foundation to life and success].

Self education is the only education you need. Rember that some of the worlds richest e are collegebdropouts, you don't need to sit in some classroom with some know it all telling you what's what, go out there and fin out for itself! Self education is the best and only from of education you will ever need, we learn everyday, strive to know everything you possibly can, overspecialization will not help you on tg path to success, is this fast paced ever changing technological world of today, it is better to know a little about a lot than a lot about a little.

Hi guys.

Education is the most essential thing like food and water. Without it, a person is like an animal. But now we have to know that what learning exactly is. Nowadays schools and colleges provide quantity education in place of quality education. That's why most of the educated peoples are jobless. Guys who are learning a lot but can't get any jobs because they are learning quantity education in place of quality education. We have to raise voice and giving students a quality education that they will use it to make themselves successful.

Thank you.

From my side, Education is a technique to train your mind and to find the solution but every problem doesn't have the same solution, in that case, skills, method, attitude, and your experience matters education doesn't though with education many got success to be there are some who didn't.

For example in business, it doesn't require a degree it requires a technique to make the investors trust the company, to get the company no1. So, lastly, most of people say education is important to be well settled but it's not true, so do choose the correct path.

Education is a life, but education is not only a life
Talent alone makes our life beautiful
Without talent reading all kind of books is useless
Education is one kind of skill, even to do that skill u need talent
So talent decides, who are you, not education.

Some examples:
* Bill gates
* Ambani
* Steve Jobs.

Don't say they are exceptional, they are also humans. And did hard work with their talent, and now conquering the world.

So friends don't worry more about education, search and find your talent, and achieve your goal.

Thank you.
