the progress and flourishment one seeks. If one prepares well today and educate himself/herself
properly, he or she will gain hold over a better future.

advanced phase, college, where s/he will gain unlimited knowledge, skills...etc. All of that will enable the
learner to select an outstanding job in a good company or make his own projects later on.

manipulation.
