Is a good education the key to a successful life?

Nowadays lots of young students decide to go to the university. We want to have higher education, because it allows to get a good job and provides good future. Sometimes people who graduated are only egg heads with attitude for a big career. They forget that diplomas or certificates are not the most important. In my opinion a good education is important but there are things that are more important to achieve your goals in life. Imagine a young student who has just graduated his studies. He had been studying for many years to get a diploma and finally start covering his living costs. In the meantime he forgot about other important things which can be useful in his life. He thought that diploma is everything he needs and that he is independent enough to live on his own. He decided to apply for a job in many companies but it was more difficult than he had thought before. I think that in this situation family connections can be very important. Maybe someone can give him an advice and help at the beginning. In my opinion, in addition to a good education support of the family and friends can be also helpful. It is often said that you cannot achieve anything without education. The best refutation of this thesis are famous people which even did not end their studies for example: Steve Jobs who left college after a term. In order to accomplish successes you need a bit of luck, desire and motivation. I think that a good education is not the main key to a successful life but it is also important. In my opinion there are some more important things which can make your life a success.
