College or NO College? Any one here believe in natural talent?

I went to Rutgers Univ for a year taking pharmacutical… didn’t finish it because I wanted to do something different. My reason was that if I do the same thing everyone else is doing I’ll end up doing what everyone else is doing. (the 9-5 job, work work and die type thing)

Took a different path and ended up with great results. Of course God helped me out a lot too cause he’s the mang! but what do you think?

It always pissed me off when I sat in classes learning non-sense (things that don’t matter) for instance a debate about why shakespere was the greatest poet, etc… things that wouldn’t help you in life at all…just taking up knowledge and wasting your time…

I think those who can see outside the school zone realise that some things are made to limit people…it won’t let them think outside the box. Notice all the great inventions in the world we live in rite now were made by fools who were never limited by being an open source with no borders.

These are the classes people should have and I think it’ll make the world a smarter and better place to live in.

Religon 101, Math, Self Dis. and karate class, Mechanical class (how to fix cars and stuff), survival class, technology class (it’s all about the technology), culture class, thats about it I think. Well point made, who here is up for an argument?

U know i think that too sometimes…I am in med school, learning the most complicated stuff in my life and competing with class mates :bummer:

But if I had a chance, I would have gone for my Interior designing :love:
Well, not to brag but i am naturally talented in art :stuck_out_tongue: I love colors :blush:

But then there are hopes from so many side around me, who want me to be a doc and I say alhamdullilah that I have given a chance to be at least :slight_smile:

Like I say, " Art is my talent, Medicine is my challenge; artist I am, Doctor I will be, Insha’allah" - By EMM :devil:

good job sayin

Re: College or NO College? Any one here believe in natural talent?

i'm not... cuz i did the same thing..
but problem with businesses is, that they wanted people with their skills proofed on papers.. i once went to security (it) job interview.. and i told them (as i heard from somewhere) u gimme temporary access to your network, i will hack into it.. but i didnt had proof on paper to SAY that i am 'capable' of doing that..

anyway.. i went to two colleges, did studies in vast aspects of life and i am turned out to be contact for emergencies of natural-disasters/corporate nature...

i'm making more money than my peers who were in highschool, colleges and universities.. half of which havent even started working, and here i am already planning changes in my stock portfolio for my retirement.. (which from what i can see from, will be at age 35) ;)

Re: College or NO College? Any one here believe in natural talent?

:-) it is . . .

my immediate AND extended family frowned upon the thought of going to college, and not university . . .

materialistically speaking from their point of view, i was the first person in my 18s that had his own car paid by him, if i was going to university i couldnt have done and achieved what i am doing today...

Re: College or NO College? Any one here believe in natural talent?

Everyone has a talent...but i don't think college is for everyone...having a degree gives u options, but that doesn't mean u have to stick with wot u studied...it can be ur back up...

Re: College or NO College? Any one here believe in natural talent?

u can still do it by going to MADINA UNIVERSITY don’t have to pay anything they will cover everything plus pocket money :smiley:

Re: College or NO College? Any one here believe in natural talent?

I agree that natural talent is more important but Nowadays there exists a society whr wat degree u do matters! and not IF u have done a degree alone’!!!

bcoz har point per people judge u based on what u ahve done academically and not where ur natural talent lies…:frowning:

Its easy for all the above to say that natural talent is more imp but they are saying it bcoz they ARE academics..:bukbuk:

gallli mein bethey mechanic ki natural ability koi kitna appreciate kerta hai?..even tho he has so much of it.

like many i believe mu natural ability has never been identified even tho i ahve doen my degrees n stuff…
maybe it lies in me being a housewife:D despite all that…

Re: College or NO College? Any one here believe in natural talent?

^ agreed :)

Re: College or NO College? Any one here believe in natural talent?
