School isn't the only way to learn

[Scott Passman]

I am working on a second graduate degree right now and I find myself constantly saying to my wife that "school is getting in the way of my learning!"  I have found so much more value in my self-studies via reading books, listening to podcasts, interacting here on the forums, working in mastermind groups etc. than I have with traditional school work.  College has its place for learning and can provide a lot of benefits including a degree, which many industries require.  But for all those out there who think you need to go to school to learn, you do not.  

There is so much to learn and all the information is readily available to us.  Read what you're passionate about, stay consistent, and take actionable steps with that information to continuously improve and you will undoubtedly be successful in whatever you pursue with or without a college degree.
