High School, College, Future

Most of us have been brought up to think that after High School, we have to go to College in order to have a good future, but the truth is even if you go to College or even if u only finish High School, there is a major possibility that you still may not have a good future.

If you look at it from an intellectual point of view, here are a few things you might experience, even with an advanced degree from any school; First off is most jobs only hire people with experience, so you must have field experience in whatever you studied.

Second is if you have a lot of experience most employers will tell you, "sorry but you are over qualified"

when that happens it is sometimes true you might have too much experience, but most of the time it is that you have too much on your resume and your employer might be afraid of you taking their job.

Third and last; is most employers are looking for someone willing to learn new things while in the field, so if you think because you are out of school you are done learning, you better think again because life is a learning experience, everyone and everything is getting more advanced so we have to learn new things in order to stay ahead.

Now if you look at it from a spiritual point of view; God is the one who maps out your life he has a plan for you to follow but it is your choice to accept it.

God has made it so that some people are meant to go to a school to learn, but he has also made some people a plan not to go to school.

An example; I have been to two different art schools within 1 year both have cheated me, but out of both schools I achieved something the first one I learned to accept instruction no matter how stupid and ass backward it may be.

From the other school I was able to get material things but both are to advance the calling God has put in my life.

Basically all people have a purpose in life school or no school, we all are meant to learn new things in order to advance in life, in order to advance In God's plan.

We need to learn it is our way of life, if we stop learning we stop living.

God has a plan for us but we have to make the decision to follow it.

“God casts the responsibility on us to choose that which is best for us. These choices come inevitably from the judgments we make about what reflects our highest selves."

Jeremiah 29:11 (New International Version, ©2010)

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
