Chapter 9 1. Education background and ability

The issue of education and ability is a commonplace issue.Today's point of view is that education and ability are not completely proportional, and those with higher education are not necessarily more capable.Some people will cite countless examples to prove the correctness of this question, such as a certain elementary school culture, and later became a big boss, the company has opened abroad, and all the employees are masters and doctors from famous universities; A certain has a high degree of education, why didn't he succeed in the end, he only talked on paper, and so on. This view is at best only partially correct.How many examples do you give? It is also a special case, isn't it?Countless facts other than special cases are still proving the correctness of another proposition: those with higher education have stronger abilities.In fact, there is no contradiction between ability, ability and education.These words were originally intended to criticize the well-behaved education system, not a single academic issue, so there is no need to be serious.

There was a time when "reading is useless" was popular in society, and some people were quite proud of being uneducated, wantonly flaunting their ignorant and fearless personality.There are very few people like this now, but this kind of concept still exists, but they don’t talk about it, but they still reject knowledge in their subconscious. Buy a book for a dollar to read.This is a problem of understanding, but also a problem of quality. We always say that the economy and culture must be grasped with both hands, and both hands must be strong.This kind of formulation has already fully proved that the two are not synchronized, because the problems that have already been realized do not need to be emphasized.Not to mention how our economy is developing. In terms of culture alone, people don't pay as much attention to it as the economy, because the latter is more direct and affordable.In fact, whether a country is developed or not is not only reflected in GDP, it is also a manifestation of comprehensive strength, including culture and education.

As far as a certain person is concerned, success is by no means accidental. He is a concentrated release after his own reserves reach a certain level.There are many things to reserve, all-inclusive, such as experience reserves, experience reserves, ability reserves, relationship reserves, and so on.Among them, the most important and most basic is the knowledge reserve.Its external manifestation is academic qualifications.Of course, knowledge is not equal to academic qualifications. Academic qualifications are only a quantitative standard of knowledge, and knowledge cannot be fully quantified.But in any case, if you do not have a degree, you will lose the opportunity to receive higher education and the opportunity to acquire more knowledge, which is always a defect.

Getting a degree is a process.In this process, as long as you work hard and study hard, instead of relying on cheating, plagiarism, back door, or unspoken rules, the academic qualifications will have high gold content and represent your ability to a certain extent.It is a pity that many academic qualifications can be obtained easily nowadays, and you can even spend money to buy them, so it doesn't matter about ability. The size of the ability is related to the innate quality.With the same high degree of education, some people have a head hanging from the beam and a cone piercing their buttocks, and their spirit is commendable, while others learn easily, flexibly, and creatively, and their abilities are quite different.The size of the ability is also related to the degree of intention.The so-called art industry has specialization, you can only stimulate your creativity if you do it with your heart.People are not sages, no matter how smart a person is, no matter how educated he is, he still has unexplored and unknown fields.You have mediocre qualifications and low education, but as long as you put your heart into a certain field, you can still become a leader.

Long-winded, I just want to express a point of view: people can't do without learning, and they can't do without knowledge. Liu Bang's defeat of Xiang Yu was not accidental. The foundation of the Han Dynasty for more than 400 years was not easy to come by. There are various factors in it, which are very complicated, but one thing that is often overlooked by people is the knowledge reserve. The knowledge mentioned here does not only refer to those books.The scope of knowledge is broad and profound. Interpersonal communication, social practice, experience accumulation, and experience accumulation all belong to the category of knowledge.Both Xiang Yu and Liu Bang have no academic qualifications, and they don't have much book knowledge. One is that they don't study hard, and the other has no chance to learn.But Liu Bang has mastered another knowledge: sociology.In contrast, Xiang Yu lacks a lot in this regard.
