Labor Day and the American Dream

believing.

College is not for everyone and it has been proven that you can be successful with or without a college degree. You just have to have the right mind set and goal put your mind to it and you will be successful at anything you do. Those with a college education, furthered their intellectual studies and curiosities to fill their brain with more knowledge from books. The hard work that they had to surpass was tests, quizzes and a whole bunch of studying. The outcome would be a job into what they have put their studies into and it would come fairly easy; while on the other hand, those without a college education had to start from scratch. The hard work that people had to put out without a college degree was to learn everything on their own, there was no book to tell them how to do this or that, and they had to figure out everything themselves. Overtime they would come to build the knowledge that they needed to know in order to be successful in life. Although jobs may not come as easy to them as a job would be for a college graduate, there are many breaks for these non-college students to make a decent pay checks. Also those who do not go to college just need to have the skills, mentality to do work, and a head that is willing to learn from everyone around them, in order to expand their knowledge and to be successful. Whether or not you go to college, there are hardships in both cases; you just have to choose whichever route is better for yourself. Nothing comes easy.

doubting.
Everyone needs a college education because it gives you an advantage in life. You learn materials from books and further your education, and once you graduate with your degree, life wouldn't be as hard for you. You wouldn't have to go searching for a job and begging them to accept your application because with the college degree it would mean that you learned what you needed to learn in a specific field, so automatically they would higher you. Work isn’t as hard, you would be either working somewhere fairly easy instead of being outside having to do hard labor for less pay. Your degree also gives you an advantage to be proud because with a college degree comes a higher social status. With a higher social status you feel accomplished and that people without an education look up to you because they want to be where you are. As for those without a college degree, they have to lose something in order to win knowledge, to become successful in life. They have to work from the bottom with nothing, all the way to the top. Not considering all the hard work, labor, sweat and tears they put into their work in order to become successful in life. Would you really want to work that hard for something might or might not guarantee you success in the end? Also, college allows those who might not be bright to learn and fill their brain up with knowledge that will take them somewhere.
