Smart Knowledge for Smart Decisions
A few days ago I saw an inspiring TED Talk that made me think and had some nice ideas in it. However, some parts of the talk were a little bit like:
“The right knowledge is power.”
- “If you invest to learn, you will create from your knowledge.”
This might be true; but we all know it, right?
What I mean with right knowledge is not “A blue car is faster than a red car.” (that’s just true or false), but rather something that can be used to create good results.
Some examples:
- A healthy diet has many benefits for your body and mind.
- Studying helps you to improve your knowledge.
- If you invest a lot of time in learning something, you will see good results.
Some examples that are not right knowledge:
- A blue car is faster than a red car. (just true or false)
- Always eat fruit for breakfast. (maybe right, maybe wrong; people have different needs and priorities)
- If you invest a lot of time in learning something, you will see bad results. (just true or false)
So right knowledge is not just true or false, right? That’s right. Why should I bother about right or wrong then? Well, reality is that right and wrong are important. We get fired if we just tell our boss right knowledge that is incorrect. We might even go to jail if we use right knowledge to hurt people, right?
So right and wrong are important.
Some examples:
- We all want to earn money, right? If I tell you that an easy way to earn money is by stealing, that’s just true or false, right? But it is wrong and can be seen as right knowledge that will create bad results.
- A healthy diet has many benefits for your body and mind, right? Well, if you eat a little bit of ice cream every day and call it healthy; then this statement is clearly right knowledge but we might see it as right or wrong knowledge right now.
I’ve found that people want to learn everything but are not willing to invest the time in acquiring the right knowledge and then practicing it. Sure, you can watch videos on YouTube or read articles online about what other successful entrepreneurs have done when they started their own businesses. But how long before these ideas become your focus? You need more than just information; you need actionable steps to take advantage of this information. That is where coaching comes in! We will work with you one-on-one, either by phone or video chat, for a customized plan tailored specifically for your goals and needs. If investing in yourself feels like an extraordinary expense at first glance, think again! Investing in our services now could mean less stress , more focus, and bigger results in the long run.
The right knowledge is power.
Invest to learn.
Create your freedom from the right knowledge not from what you have been programed to think is the right knowledge.
