Going back to school can be a tough decision, but being positive and having confidence can
lead you to success. As I grew older, I needed to decide what I was going to do with
my life. As I got closer to graduating from high school, I was very much against the idea of
college. While growing up in a not so wealthy family, going to college wasn’t really a priority for
me; as I had to help my parents and brothers. But now, it is becoming more difficult to advance
without some sort of advance education. There were many reasons why I choose to go back to
school, to better myself and to set and example for my brothers. …show more content…
I have a high school diploma but that may not help me.
One of the reasons why I went back to school was so I can get a good education, because
having an education is something important in life, you feel confident, accomplished and you
gain more knowledge. When going back to school you develop verbal skills, which are
important in general, and especially, in managerial positions. Also attending college or
university helps perform the day to day tasks of life more effectively, like locating the right
doctor, searching for a good investment, finding new job, or working out family challenges.
Education is important to me because it helps me develop new interests in life that may be
entertaining or allow me to enter a new occupation. I know that returning back to school will
lead me to more job opportunities and wider choice of jobs. Therefore, it is correlated with job
satisfaction.
Another reason why I decided to go back to school was because having a good paying job is
something that benefits from going to school. You have a better life, you feel more relaxed
