Experience helps make sense of knowledge
This comment by wellokaythen on the post Why Parents Shouldn’t Force Their Child to go To College Right Away
“Because I’m 18″ is just about the worst reason to start going to college. Sure, it’s “tradition freshman age,” and that works for a lot of people, but it’s generally a bad reason. “Momentum from high school” is also a very bad reason to start college. The students who get the most out of college (and the ones that are the most pleasant to teach) are students who have actively, consciously chosen to go to college, not the ones who just couldn’t think of anything else to do.)

Food for Thought:
Happy productive people follow their passion and talents. Experience helps them figure out what it is and that allows them to make the most out of college.
