A student spends nearly 14 years in a school and when he/she graduates to enter life as an adult, though knowledgeable about many academic and extra curricular subjects, but experience shows that most students are shallow / not knowledgeable about some extremely crucial life skill issues.
Some of the topics I wish, the schools focus on, are:
- How to lead
- How to negotiate
- How to start a business
- How to make millions
- How to sell
- How money works
- How taxes work
- How to have an objective view on politics
- How to vote
- How to think for yourself (avoiding peer pressure)
- How to process issues
- Conflict resolution
- How to marry/date
- How to be a good parent
- How to deal with failure (Heartbreak, Job Loss, Rejection)
Traditional education has become irrelevant. We must focus to learn topics/subjects that truly matter
