Bill Gates recently gave a speech at a high school about eleven things students did not and will not learn in school.
He talked about how feel-good, politically correct teachings have created a generation of kids with no concept of reality and how this concept set them up for failure in the real world.
Rule 1. Life is NOT fair. Get used to it.
Rule 2. The world doesn’t care about your self esteem. The world expects you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.
Rule 3. You will not earn $60,000 a year right out of high school. You won’t be a vice president with a car phone until you EARN both.
Rule 4. If you think your teacher is tough wait till you get a boss.
Rule 5. Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your grandparents had a different word for burger flipping. They called it OPPORTUNITY.
Rule 6. If you mess up it’s not your parents fault, so don’t whine about your mistakes, LEARN from them.
Rule 7. Before you were born your parents weren’t as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were. So before you save the rain forests from the parasites of your parents generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.
Rule 8. Your school may have done away with winners and losers but life HAS NOT. In some schools they have abolished failing grades and you’re given as many times as you want to get the right answer. This does not bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.
Rule 9. Life isn’t divided into semesters. You don’t get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you FIND YOURSELF. Do that on your own time!
Rule 10. Television is not real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to their jobs.
Rule 11. Be nice to nerds. Chances are you will end up working for one.
If you can read this… Thank a teacher
If you can read this in English… Thank a soldier
And for life and everything else you have… Thank God.
