KNOWLEDGE

LESSON #3

KNOWLEDGE We have truly entered the age of massive information and those who are proactive can use this to their advantage. The more you know, the less you fear. Apply the knowledge you got from school to sharpen your skills. The only way to be knowledgeable is to be open minded. Before starting a venture do not assume to know everything make thorough research to get as much knowledge as possible. Avoid also taking the word of mouth as the gospel truth.

·        Knowledge is power. People who have achieved great success are not necessarily more skillful or intelligent than others. What separates them is their burning desire and thirst for knowledge. The more one knows, the more one achieves. Great leaders have techniques to allow them to arrive at the top of the mountain. Read the biographies of the world's leaders and learn from their habits, inspirations and philosophies. Cultivate the important practice of active role modeling. By Robin S. Sharma.

·        Empty your cup. A full cup cannot accept anything more. Similarly, a person who believes that he cannot learn anything else will stagnate quickly and not move to higher levels. A true sign of a secure, mature individual is someone who sees every opportunity as a chance to learn. Even the teachers have teachers. By Robin S. Sharma.

·        Read "A History of Knowledge" by Charles Van Doren which chronicles the history of the world's ideas. In this one book is an absolute wealth of knowledge. Get it, read it and enjoy it. By Robin S. Sharma.
