Possibly
my favourite Robert Kiyosaki quote "Don't
Work for Money. Work for Knowledge."
In
this world, money is a necessity, so you can hope to be paid a fair
rate for your work
(unless you're an entrepreneur and don't need to work for money).
But, don't work for money, work for knowledge.
The
more knowledge you acquire, the more true wealth you have. Financial
wealth (external wealth) can be taken away from you. Internal wealth
(knowledge and wisdom) cannot.
And
don't
be a 9 to 5-er!
You
know what a 9 to 5-er is:
Someone
who turns up to work at 9, then finishes at 5 on the dot. Someone who
turns up to work just to get their daily wage. Someone who is not
growing their knowledge (not growing their inner wealth.)
You've
got to be different. The
money is a bonus. It's the knowledge that matters. The wealth comes from the knowledge your acquire. And
that's why you've got to put yourself out, get new experiences, get
new knowledge, get deeper knowledge. And from more knowledge comes
more money.
Life
is not about getting that monthly paycheck. It's about every
day building your knowledge
and wisdom (your inner wealth.)
