WHY?
The art of education is not that elusive, however, it would seem so within our modern system of education which has never before had so many resources applied to the challenge but continually achieving lesser results.
It is often implied that education is something that happens in young age and thereafter the individual is left to succeed or fail accordingly. Often young minds having completed their 'education' go out into the world with the attitude that now they are fully educated they are ready for 'working life', eager to receive the rewards for which they have worked so hard for.
Nethertheless the art of education is to realize that from the start that one can never be taught all that is necessary to achieve the goals and aspirations of individuals. As soon as you try and package education into lumps where one size fits all, the results will always be disappointing.
It is important to remember along our journeys that obtaining skills and achieving excellence is an illusive and ever shifting game, along the way one must continually adapt and be constantly aware and open to new challenges which should be adopted as if they were never parted.
