Why school doesn't prepare us for life? Many essential skills they didn't teach you in school. Some things should be taught in school but aren't, I've been making a list of the things they don't teach you at school.

The most important things you learn in life you don't learn in school.

Be proud of continuing your education beyond the traditional school. Learning, studying and investing in yourself does not stop when you become successful; That's when it actually begins. The sooner you learn that all the tools you need to thrive will have you after you abandon the confines of educational compliance, the faster you will succeed. Here are six tips you can not learn in a classroom.

1. A powerful "why." 

Realize that no matter where you are, you can always improve. Are you actually giving everything of yourself? Your chances are endless when you find the right reasons. The goal is to create a "why" so high that it helps you with any challenge, beyond doubts and even your limitations. We are in an economy that welcomes the entrepreneur. It has become easier to discover what your ideal future would be. You just need compelling reasons, clear intentions, and proper guidance.

2. Focus on your strengths, delegate your weaknesses. 

Anyone who tells you to focus on your weaknesses has not experienced maximum performance. The idols you and I respected along with all the triumphs prospered by deliberately focusing on their strengths. If you are not sure which ones are yours, ask the people around you.

From your strengths is where you get results and may not be what you love. Everyone likes to do things they are good at, and your creativity will thrive if you love what you do.

3. Habits always inspire triumph. 

Inspiration is needed to create actions consistently, but your habits are what will define your success or failure. They say that only five percent of the people in the seminars use what they have learned. Why does that happen? Because the inspiration is short-term. It feels good at the moment, but we do not use it later.

The greatest inspiration of all is to see some progress and results, that comes from the new habits that you adopt. When you acquire a new habit do not abandon it and observe the changes in your life.

4. Masters vs. Information overload. 

Mastery is the greatest achievement. The only way to be successful is to become the master of the fundamentals and skills needed to achieve your goals and dreams. We have a lot of information available to us, it is easy to become overwhelmed, distracted when that happens.

Instead of reading 50 books this year, he masters and implements three. The young apprentice wants to get as much information as possible but they will break, stress and will not progress. The mature mind deliberates what it should study. The winners focus on hearing something until they adopt it in their daily agenda, this has given them results.

5. Real education. 

Jim Rohn said, "if you work hard at your job you can earn a living, but if you work hard at yourself, you can make a fortune." Investing in yourself must be the first on your list to be able to solidify a great future. Apple said, "we should not be criticized for using Chinese workers, the United States has stopped producing people with the skills we need."

When I say that you develop yourself, grow and improve your skills, I do not mean school. Rare but true, the school sometimes distracts you from the things that really matter to advance your career and your life. Warren Buffet said, "the best education you can have is investing in yourself, that's not the same as a college."

Discover what you want and the kind of guy you want to be to achieve your goals.
