Why we've to go to university?
Someone may say that i could spend that time and money to enhance my career instead of study at a university. I could work hard at that time and pay that money to buy some tools for my craft and so on ... . In reply, i say to them: so welcome to illiterates club!!!
In fact, every day thousands of people enter Labor market and production worldwide, without having acquired sufficient knowledge. I name that place which they enter to, as illiterates club. In the illiterates club, no one has an advantage over another. Everyone is on the same level. So anyone can do what the other person does. To embody such situation, consider your cities stores. They can sell everything. One store can change their guild and sell another store's goods easily.
In other hand, we have society of specialists. In this society, each person is good only in self industry. In Society of illiterates, the difference between an amator member and a skilled one, is one, two or finally three stairs and some tricks. But there is a big gap between the knowledge of two experts, years of study ...

A formal title such as engineer, doctor, technician, etc. can forces you to be more active
Look, whether we accept it or not, there is a fact about all human beings and that is that we humans are inherently lazy. Do you remember "LazyTown" TV series? The fact is that we are all citizens of that town ... We all need real and strong stimuli to deal with our innate laziness ...

The difference is in the goals
Growing bonsai trees is a special art. Bonsai gardeners are shaping bonsai branches for months and years with a secateurs. Exactly the same thing is done by orchard gardeners, but a fruit tree is not always like a bonsai tree.
There is no difference between gardeners or secateurs, in fact, difference is in goals. The gardener has the final shape of tree in mind from the beginning, It can be the shape of a bonsai or the shape of a fruit tree.

I do not intend to be the second Bill Gates
It is a fact that everything isn't taught to you in university. Actually, education continues even after graduation, and outside of there you learn a lot more. Of course, if you are lucky, you will have good teachers there. Fortunately, years after graduation, a young engineer became a good teacher to me. He has wrote an article on his website entitled "Tips for Computer Students" (article was in Persian). One sentence of the article was as follows: "Every computer student should have a website or blog for herself/himself". He had his own website and in addition to writing articles, he also was publishing there the softwares that he had developed. Such a sentence from a computer engineer with such a professional lifestyle, was very inspiring for me.
Today I want to add a section to my teacher's sentence: "Every student should have a company with website or blog for herself/himself" !!!
I'm not saying that everyone should try to become Bill Gates II. Incidentally, such thinking is not useful at all. The thought of having thousands of employees and earning billions a month can be daunting. Many people prefer a simple but full of love and beauty life to such a thing. In order to get you moving, you need to have a tangible and achievable goal ... If your goal be humanitarian, you will be even more motivated ...
