Re create yourself

The excitement of learning separates youth from old age. As long as you are learning you're not old. Learning is a matter of intensity not elapsed time. Through learning we re-create ourselves. Through learning we become able to do something we were never able to do.

Hard work pays off !!

The whole object of education is to...develop the mind. The mind should be a thing that works. In education, nothing works if the students don't.

Educational encouragement

nine tenths of education is encouragement.

Education is... one of the chief obstacles to intelligence and freedom of thought.
Education is... what remains when we have forgotten all that we have been taught.

Hello fellow bloggers, Edith Hamilton wrote" It has always seemed strange to me that in our endless discussions about education so little stress is laid on the pleasure of becoming an educated person, the enormous interest it adds to life. To be able to be caught up into the world of thought--- that is to be educated".

Something short and sweet today: education is one of the few things a person is willing to pay for and not get. Use your time and money wisely.

Be strong in your convictions, develop good study habits and do your homework and please come to class on time and be prepared.

In class now, and it sounds so crazy but loving it ! So rejuvinating to learn and experience new stuff. Keep up the good work ! Gotta give myself encouragement.

Well it's Saturday, off to school. That's so good to say !!!

In todays world you must have a well rounded education in order to get ahead, so many people at work get complacent with their jobs, when others with a degree surpass them in the workforce. It is not only who you know, but what you know. So to the young folks get yours while you can and study something you enjoy so you can excel at it. I wish I were younger, but it's never to late. I'm gonna sit back and get mine and pass everybody at work. Education is the answer.

When God leads you to the edge of the cliff, trust Him fully and let go, only 1 of 2 things will happen, either He'll catch you when you fall, or He'll teach you how to fly! I believe I will fly with my educational goals, so step out on faith and return back to school, no matter what age you are. Remember knowledge is key for success.

After looking at all my options, I do believe I made the right choice with returning back to school to obtain my graduate degree. Education is just not for the young, but also the young at heart. I just have to concentrate a little more than usual and be better focused and prioritize my life and school with my home environment.

As I know education is the key to success, since I've been in the workplace for over 20 years, where is there for me to go? I see light at the end of the tunnel for me. in saying that I will be persistent with my studies and keep a positive attitude about returning to the classroom. Things in life are not easy is this one of them, but I can do it. Does anybody feel like I do? Is anybody struggling with this situation also?

Today was a rough day at work and I'm so tired, kids got to eat, husband has to eat, when do I have time to study? Somebody please help, I am mentally exhausted!! Is there work life balance after 40 years old? Do I really need to continue my education is what I keep asking myself, and I know the answer is yes. But somedays I just think I am too old.

Education is the key

Is it just me, but when you go back to school after the kids are grown and you are on the second half of your life, why does things seem so hard!! going back to school after 40, is harder than people realize. pls give me some insight/help
