Re: The Education of Steve Jobs
Since you asked.
Nothing in the article stirred my blood.
I am reminded of what I learned in my first year at the University of Alabama. College, for the future entrepreneur, is not for learning anything worthwhile. It is for maturing, establishing a network, satisfying the "degree requirement" and more or less polishing social skills.
I think a 4 year military stint accomplishes much the same with some differences, depending on the individual.
Jobs succeeded because he was creatively gifted.
Lots of people are smart and educated but there are only so many Beethovens and there are only so many Jobs.
Hell, I am smart, but I am damn near devoid of creativity. I think you are born with it and it can't be taught.
