INDUCTION, GRADUATION AND MATURATION
Jul 19, 2020 4:13 am
, Come to think of a scenario where a toddler of age 5 (named Simon) is enrolled into secondary school to start his education from J.S.S 1.
I guess that appears awkward to you, right?
Yet, just imagine it.
Think of what solving simultaneous equation would be for Simon?
Think of how understanding photosynthesis would be for him?
Think of what understanding Introductory Technology would be for him?
Think of what understanding respiratory system would be for him?
I need you to reason what starting education with those teachings would appear to our boy, Simon.
This is exactly what we(here I necessarily do not mean me or you but majority of the human race) do to ourselves sometimes. We try to start life with an assumption of maturation.
We believe (which is good), yet, we neglect the reality that the qualification for any new phase is the ticket you got from graduating in the previous school of life. The reason so many are struggling in the current phase of life and business is skipping the lessons the should have been learnt in the Primary school of life before getting to the Tertiary institution.
There are situations of life that asks for your W.A.E.C certificate before proving your qualification for a Bachelors degree.
This is exactly the reason why many read some books and end up more confused than they were. You can pick a University resources in the Mathematics of an area of life without knowing the primary techniques of BODMAS.
When you understand what level you are at and how to move to the next, you will be amidst the happiest set of people on earth today.
In the words of Vusi Thembekwayo:
" People want to go through maturation without induction and graduation"
It will be tougher than you think and more complex than you are told. Only those who are willing to journey through the exploration of life intentionally end up appearing the smartest.
Strengthen your mind to grow through the process instead of jump and return back to where you left off.
This could be your Saver if you are at the edge of skipping a process or currently faced with a challenge you have found difficult to figure out.
It is crucial to embrace the process.
