Even with a high school diploma or bachelor’s degree, you may still be uneducated in the most important aspects of your life… Do you have this burning and unquenchable feeling that, even with all your years of being taught how to live and what to think and do, you still don’t actually know much about the things you need to know about?
How to stay fit.
How to properly communicate your feelings.
How to build daily habits that produce growth and allow you to relax at the end of the day.
The truth is, the education system of our westernised economic and political sphere doesn’t prepare us for the real challenges of life -- it simply guides us into becoming a “successful” employee.
This might have worked great a hundred years ago when times were different and personal expectations were less abundant, but nowadays we each want more, and rightfully so.
The problem is, we haven’t been properly taught how to attain this ‘something more’. Most of us, dream as we might, simply don't have the right education to be able to break free.
Although the education system might not be changing anytime soon, this doesn't mean we can’t still take back control of our lives and begin to teach ourselves what schools did not.
With a well-structured look at what we weren’t taught, as well as an actionable and informative plan to fill in the blanks, it won’t be long before you notice yourself feeling more empowered than ever before.
We all just need a bit of re-education.
In UnEducated, you’ll
Why embracing your weaknesses is actually a good thing, and how you can use your strengths to overcome them Why you should move your body daily and how this will help you find motivation How finding your “why” can change your life forever How to turn fear into courage and take action on your dreams A powerful stoic outlook that will help you enhance the quality of your life in every way possible Why learning to sit still is the greatest skill you can cultivate and how you can begin your ‘stillness practice’ today Why reducing the number of choices you make each day will set you free … and much more!
Just because your education system has in many ways failed you doesn't mean you can’t still learn all there is to know about life.
Times are changing and the schools are struggling to keep up.
But that’s okay! We have the power to educate ourselves, and when we do we will begin to truly understand all that is possible in our life.

The author is honest and transparent about textbooks and classrooms not preparing people for the real world. This book covers different domains of Personality and Skills, making it digestible for open-minded readers. Two quotes that resonate with me are "Rejection turns into redirection" and "Once you stop learning, you start dying." Against-the-grain individuals will appreciate this read.
Page 2 . Ripping on the education system while including a huge grammatical error. What am I getting myself into? Kindle says a 40 minute read, let's go...
"I don’t want you thinking this book will continue throwing hate at the education system. Once passed the introduction, the chapters are focused on the subjects schools could teach to significantly improve their students’ lives, success, and happiness. That includes all students, those still attending, that have left and those that didn’t attend or barely did."
18% in, and there are so many references to other works I wonder why I'm reading this one. Then I saw this passage asking the same question and decided to jettison the rest of the volume:
"As I have mentioned countless times throughout this chapter, enough to make you wonder if I’m only doing it to increase the word count - read Dr Kevin Leman’s The Birth Order Book."
So refreshing to finally read a book by someone who not only has the same questions as me..but also provided realistic solutions..I love the author for this knowledge
