College Will Kill Your Entrepreneurial Spirit…

Interesting perspective.

College Will Kill Your Entrepreneurial Spirit While Simultaneously Turning You into a Worker Bee

Not sure I agree 100% but the fact is that our current educational system doesn’t incredibly bad job of preparing people for the world that we live in. That’s in large part because the current education system was developed in a period in time where the skills required of people coming out of college were much different than the skills that are required today. Today most of the most successful and fulfilled people today are entrepreneurs living out their dreams and following their bliss. However, schools don’t really teach that. In fact, they pretty much teach the opposite of that.

I’m excited to help “be the change” on this one. I encourage you to do likewise. :)

    What the sh*t? College is not a system for preparing you for the world you live in. It gives you tools to learn, that’s it. The learning is still up to you. If you want to learn to be an entrepreneur, go for it. If you want to be a working bee, that’s fine too. College doesn’t make this decision for you nor will it kill your spirit. I’m very entrepreneurial and I went to college, and graduated.
