The road to a successful career begins with education. You need basic education where you learn all subjects like mathematics, science, language, etc. In other words, you need at least 12 years of school education.
You will have to choose a specialization. What subjects you should choose depends on your interest and mental capacity. You will have to spend many years in college and university to master your subjects. For some people going through a higher level of education is not possible. For these people developing skills remains the only way to enhance their capacity. Actually, skills are needed even if you have the education.
Generally speaking, you cannot choose between developing skills and gaining academic excellence. But it is also true that some people succeed without skills.
