How to Be a Successful Adult Student - Having Goals |
|
Written by John Steely
|
|
Earl Nightingale makes a point, that I agree with, that one of the common characteristics of successful people in any endeavor is that successful people have goals, goals that they know and have written down. Certainly the successful students I have known have a set of definite goals that they can articulate at a moments notice. On the other hand, when talking to students that do not have such a clear set of goals, many times I am not sure they will complete their chosen program of study, and indeed many goalless students do not get their degree. While I am not sure having goals is the only deciding factor, I am convinced that not having goals severely weakens the probability of being successful.

The entire body of adult education studies is being referred to as 'lifelong or continuing education'. There are thousands of learners all over the world, who find that going back to college to earn a degree, or continue their business education is an exciting way to spend their time after a career and years of raising kids.
