Get Balanced: Education<\/span><\/h1>

I always tell my friends, that in life, you must \u201cGet Balanced\u201d. Let\u2019s start with Education<\/b>.<\/span>
Sooner or later, you\u2019re going to get in a \u201cwork promotion-stoppage\u201d, which is an inability to progress at work. If your skills are not current you won\u2019t get promoted or get that pay raise. <\/span><\/p>

Education makes part of your skill set complete. <\/b><\/span><\/h1>

The problem that most workers have is \u201chow to get started\u201d. Most people are motivated and immediately run to the local college and get a student loan and sign up for 4 classes, about 15 credits.\u00a0<\/span>Two months later they will drop everything and stop going to school. It is a lot, especially if you haven\u2019t gone to school in while.
<\/span>
How to start?<\/b>
First, choose a topic or career you like, look at the class schedule and take one class. <\/span><\/p>

\u201cOne class only\u201d<\/span><\/strong><\/h1>

If is weight lifting or dancing, it does not matter. The goal is to complete the class and get an A.<\/b><\/span>
Going to school is hard, it is expensive, and time consuming. But the most important part is learning to go back to school. When you have completed that course, start looking at creating an educational plan. You need to plan this, look at what options are available in your area. You should take a class that builds for the next level.<\/span>
If you start with one class that’s ok. Usually one class is between 1-3 credits. One credit is 15 clock hrs.,\u00a0 while three credits is about 45 clock hrs.
<\/span>
Look at a Certificate program.\u00a0A<\/b>\u00a0Certificate program<\/b> is about 6-30 credits, which is about six months to a year of school. An Associate degree<\/b> is about 60 credits, which is about 2-3 years of school. A Bachelor\u2019s degree <\/b>is about 120 credits and usually takes around 4-5 years to complete. It looks like a long time, but once you start, it goes pretty fast.<\/span>
Taking that first step is the most difficult. Beginning with one class is recommended and after completing that class, go on to the next level. Start slowly and increase your classes as you see fit.<\/span>
You can do it!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>

True Story:
I have a friend that was taking a course; English as a Second Language (ESL). His English was pretty good. I asked him \u201cHow long have you been taking the class for?\u201d He then said \u201c15 years\u201d. He said he felt comfortable with work and the teachers.<\/em><\/span><\/h6>
I told him, that it was time to go to the next level, I helped him to enroll at the local college and he started with English 101, he was surprised at the diversity of students, young and old, and different nationalities.
He started helping the other students and eventually became a tutor. Today he has a Master Degree in English.<\/em><\/span><\/h6>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
