Why Self-Education Beats School (and Always Has)

Let's discuss taking ownership of your education. The quality of your life and the longevity of your freedoms depend on it. I hope you enjoy this Coffee Break on Tuesday and join the education revolution! Pick up a set of books and get to work over the holidays!

In this video, I explain why self-education beats traditional schooling, and why taking control of your own learning has always been the key to wisdom, freedom, and independence. From Plato’s Republic to the Founding Fathers, from journaling to commonplace books, history shows that education is too important to be left to institutions alone.
