Kids College

What did College and University really taught me when I dropped out?

For most of us studying is a complete insult to the brain wanting to do better things with our time. Some of us really enjoy it and get a kick out of it. For me it’s just a waste of time listening to so called professors who never actually kissed a girl. Knowing that makes a college more worth it and the internet serves us with energetic movies when sitting in the back.There’s always a story behind a story. So why didn’t I properly study?

I’ll sum it up what I’ve learned during my 2 years of College and 4 years of University. Some of them are applicable to companies.

#1. Don’t get distracted. Focus, focus and focus. There are loads of better things to do. Learn now…work later !

#2. Loose the attitude. Learning should be fun ! Your University or College tries to ‘hand over’ a future. Don’t wreck it.

#3. Listen ! Both parties should listen. For instance my University didn’t listen which resulted in missed out opportunities for me and the University. Ask whether they have or want to install a local ‘Wiki’ (a sort of Questions & Answer).

#4. Finding the right people to work/study with is essential. Some you may find cool to hang out but probably won’t get you anywhere. Body language reveals a lot about a person. I suggest you keep track of ‘signs’.

#5. Be fearsomely determined. Determination is essential. Cut the chord. Like Nike; Just Do It !

#6. Avoid the rich-kid Colleges/Universities. The nothing but annoying and won’t get you anywhere except to some exotic destinations with superficial, backstabbing and gossiphorny people.

#7. Be succinct and true to yourself. Try to create clarity for you and the rest.

#8. Communication remains essential. If you and others don’t properly communicate it will interfere with the solution.

#9. Be yourself ! Never let anyone change you ! People constantly try to alter your character. Don’t allow it. Only your spouse is allowed to change you.

#10. Make time for activities like sports, hanging out with friends, theater or relax at home. Don’t study too hard, also try to live !

#11. Find yourself a College or University that’s been around for decades. In the end it will save you a lot of trouble.

#12. Keep your promise(s) ! My University broke way too many promises it resulted in a lower interest/passion for studying (at that particular place).

#13. Never give up ! There’s always a way to get to it but avoid hitting the reinforced concrete wall too often.
