given persistence rates and other insights that point to the struggles that plague students entering college and the workplace. So what do you do? Nearly every indicator says your chances are better with a college degree. But how do you reconcile the insights from some of the other statistics that are out there? Start by asking the right questions.

“The quality of our lives is directly related to the quality of the questions we ask.” —Tony Robbins

That’s what we’re really after right? A decent quality of life. Well, luck has nothing to do with it and higher education may or may not be the panacea you seek. Whether or not you go to college should not be the focus of your inquiry and decision-making process. You should be educating yourself on the realities of the world in which we live; the skills employers need, the problems requiring solutions, the determinants of success. You should be aware of the areas in which you thrive, areas in need of improvement, the sacrifices you’re willing to make, and where exactly you see yourself after graduating.

Ask the right questions, find the right answers and get with a program that’s right for you. An investment without a well devised strategy isn’t an investment at all. It’s speculation.

Reflective Moment: What’s your definition of success? What’s your strategy to achieve that success and the best vehicle to get you there?
