I have seen many people that are illiterate or less educated and do nothing in their life. Whenever you ask them why you aren’t doing something good in your life, why are you wasting your time. They have a common reply that they are less educated or illiterate. So, they are of no worth, they don’t know anything. So, better we just pass our time of life until we die. This is how they see their life. They may have interest in a particular area, in a particular work but their set of thoughts isn’t allowing them to go for it. They’ve made a blockage in their mind themselves. The blockage of negative thoughts, which stops them from progressing in their life.

Education is the right of everyone. All parents want to make their child educated first, before thinking of their career. Even if someone has a family business and has an empire of business. They look for basic education for their children first. They know that their children are not going to do any job, and technical education may not be required for them. But, still they feel the importance of education for their children’s life. They know that education is going to install so many required things in life for their children.

Importance of Education

Education is the root of anyone’s life. There is a system of society which is coming from ancient times. Earlier, people used to go to gurukuls and get education. Every day, they used to learn something new. Today, these are replaced with schools. Still, the teaching of gurukul is present in our society. When a child studies in a school in primary years of life, he not only develops his mind with the academic education but also learns many things over there such as how to behave. He gets to know about the system of society. He knows about the history of their culture. More of all, education makes us feel immense confidence and self motivation.

When you are an educated person & have a degree, You feel confident and supreme of all. You may not have practical knowledge of what you were taught in your school but you always feel confident that you have completed your higher studies. Education adds new dimensions in your life, It adds to the way of living for you. This is all about getting an education but what about those who are not fortunate enough to go to school. There may be financial boundaries, social boundaries or others, but they remain without education for their whole life.

Reason for Stress

According to an UNESCO report 2026 , there are still 739 million illiterate adults are present in the world . Government organisations & other agencies throughout the world are playing their part to reduce illiteracy . But , what about those who have become illiterate and there is no scope for education remaining in their life . What if all illiterates start feeling that they are of no use & they couldn’t do anything , they would go in immense stress and depression . It would be very harmful to their life , for society .

Now , what could be the solution to this . If they only know one thing and believe on that , they are going to feel self motivation and confidence in fraction of seconds . They are going to reconnect with the society . By doing so , they will feel importance of themselves . What is that magical thing , magical statement which is going to change their life . There is something which education doesn’t teach you . Which is the key to success in life . Therefore , let’s discuss the most important part of this blog .

What to do

Education could teach you everything but it couldn’t teach you one thing which is ‘Experience’. You get experience by doing action, when you actually get engaged in work. Experience is something which none could snatch it from you. Whatever experience you get in your life, It’s your own asset. Experience comes with practice & time. Imagine, you give five years in working something, You have made certain experience. If you give 10 years in the same work you would get another type of experience. Experience improves with time.

Now, an illiterate person must remind this all the time that if you are illiterate due to any reason, It’s your past, better you forget it. Here, you must concentrate on experience. For experience, you must engage in something, better if you get into any work which you’ve interested in, which you like the most. In starting, you are going to face many failures of your work but this is what we call experience. Which is going to help you throughout your carrier, life. All along, You must feel that every person has some qualities for sure, so as you are having. Therefore, why don’t you work to know your qualities and make it a career, which is going to ensure success, no matter how literate you are.

Concluding Note

Some may say that I created this blog for illiterates, but how would an illiterate go through with this blog? I say that it is the responsibility of educated people to first understand one thing that if a person is illiterate, it doesn’t mean that he is worthless. Everybody has some qualities in them, so start respecting them. All educated people have the responsibility to convey this message to the illiterate one and make them feel that they are worthy the same as an educated person. Even they have an advantage that they are not bound with education limitations. They are free from the education code of society, there is no limit. They could experiment with their work to any length & become inspiration for the world.
