Volume 3 Chapter 2 Attracting Wealth in the Stirring of Thoughts [-]
Keep your mind sharp by "recharging"

Successful people in all walks of life never stop drawing on expertise related to their goals, business or career.

——Think and Grow Rich

In life, if a person suddenly becomes idle, it is obviously because he is not aware of the problem of progress.A truly positive person will be afraid that his wisdom will become rough and humble. In order to make himself more perfect, he will continue to enrich himself with culture and knowledge.

Why do people want to increase their knowledge content?This is determined by the times.In the past ten years, human knowledge has been improving at a rate of doubling every three years.The total amount of knowledge is increasing rapidly at an explosive speed, and knowledge is updated as frequently as products.However, people's current knowledge is limited, and they will soon lag behind social development based on what they have learned from school.

A person's mental growth is also in this state.Only by constantly learning new things can we keep our thinking agile, keep up with the pace of the times, and innovate repeatedly.

Eitaro Itoyama, a prominent figure in Japan's political and business circles, has billions of dollars in assets at the age of 30; at the age of 32, he became the youngest senator in Japanese history. According to the 2004 "Forbes" magazine's list of the world's richest people, Eitaro Itoyama's personal net worth is 49 billion US dollars, ranking 86th.What is his secret to making money?Eitaro Itoyama replied: "Continuous learning is the magic weapon for success."

Eitaro Itoyama has always believed in the belief of "continuously learning new things", and always desperately seeks answers to things he doesn't understand.By selling foreign cars, he learned the skills of sales; by studying financial knowledge, he knew how to use banks and the stock market to make a lot of money flow into his own pocket...Even as he got older, Itoyama Eitaro was still unwilling to be eliminated by the times.He started learning about computers and soon founded his own Internet company, publishing his personal views on current issues.Even in his old age, Eitaro Itoyama still has the courage to challenge new things and is eager to understand unknown areas.

It is by constantly learning new things that Eitaro Itoyama keeps himself at the forefront of the times.By learning to exceed previous performance, people are given the opportunity to continue to develop.No one can say with pride that he always has the capital of pride, because no one can say that he has been thoroughly proficient and thoroughly researched even if he has profound attainments in a certain field.Not only that, just being proficient in one subject often makes people's character and behavior biased.We must be well-informed and constantly enrich ourselves with other kinds of knowledge in order to better adapt to the modern pluralistic society.

In Motorola, there is a Motorola University.According to relevant regulations, all employees of the company, regardless of their positions, must receive no less than 5 working days of training each year without exception.Now, the university has a considerable scale, offering as many as 170 courses each year, which can meet the needs of employees to "recharge".

No matter which stage of life a successful person is in, including study, employment and leisure, he will regard continuous learning as his important habit at any time.Because they know that their knowledge is valuable to society, and it can also bring them a better life.At this moment, if we think we are still a little bit smart, but we haven't realized the importance of "recharging" ourselves, we are ruining our own development path.
