We need to move from acquiring knowledge into creating wealth, on paper it looks straightforward but in reality, it is just a little bit different.
The challenge exists in the first place because people who chase after knowledge experience a certain fulfillment only knowledge can bring. Knowledge bestows a certain swagger upon whoever wields it, in an ideal society, the most knowledgeable people would also be the wealthiest. It appears then that things are far from ideal.
Transforming knowledge in the mind into money in the pocket requires a mental shift. You have to get into what I term “trader mode”, where in you sift through your mind thoroughly, looking for things you could trade. Things that seem so obvious to you, yet that people would gladly pay you for.
The magic resides in the things you can trade.
What do you know, what can you do that people would be willing to pay you for?
