Cultivating new information to inspire CREATIVITY is vital in the chasing of our dreams and ambitions. Great ideas are a result of your existing base of knowledge constantly being fed by new sources of learning material.  While the traditional, formal education system may provide you with the framework of a complete educational experience, the bulk of the knowledge your absorb is simply THEORY. Self-education is taking that framework, and consistently building up the structures and strengthening the foundation.  The phrase “KNOWLEDGE is POWER” is thrown around very liberally as a caption on social media and in inspirational speeches from self-help coaches, but the truth is that APPLIED KNOWLEDGE IS POWER. Quote: “If you meet at dinner a man who has spent his life in educating himself – a rare type in our time … you rise from table richer, and conscious that a high ideal has for a moment touched and sanctified your days. But Oh! my dear Ernest, to sit next to a man who has spent his life in trying to educate others! What a dreadful experience that is!?”– Oscar Wilde There’s just SOMETHING about rooting for the underdog; the ones who self-educated, the ones who sacrificed sleep to learn as much as they could about their passion, the ones who worked their asses off at becoming an expert in their craft. Ya know what I’m saying?!?! Constant learning makes you more confident in your knowledge and abilities.  The information is out there. There’s NO EXCUSE not to practice self-education weekly, even if you’re already a GENIUS. The mark of a GENIUS is constantly seeking out new information and asking questions to further your learning. LACK of discipline is a real RISK-FACTOR in the journey that is self-education. Both self-learning and traditional education have their pros and cons, benefits and shortcomings. Do both, do one or the other, but DON’T DO NEITHER.  https://mruddo.com
