RE: Self-Improvement: Being TOLD What we Need vs. KNOWING What we Need
This is exactly why I feel the way I do about education. Pushing people to do or learn or whatever is destined for failure. Intrinsic motivation and willingness are everything.

I know what you mean! We had two kids who went to college because they felt they "had to." And neither of them actually finished their degree plans... Our daughter has most of a degree in law, and most of a degree in cinematography... and works for a major investment banking firm. Our middle son... has most of an electrical engineering degree... and works as an arborist.
I did the same thing. A degree in environmental science that I've never used. I am glad my oldest decided not to go to college.
