Robert Kiyosaki Quote on The Importance Of Learning In Today’s Fast-Changing World

    “In today’s fast-changing world, it’s not so much what you know anymore that counts, because often what you know is old. It is how fast you learn. That skill is priceless.”

    Robert Kiyosaki, Rich Dad Poor Dad (Page 212)

    And to that point, even more important than the speed in which you learn is whether or not you are actually still learning. The world is changing at an incredible pace and as Kiyosaki points out, more often than not, what you know from what you’ve been taught is likely outdated and old.  Thankfully, with the internet and Google, we don’t have to worry about memorizing new material or about having access the latest ideas—they are readily available to us with a couple of quick thumb taps.  But with that access and organization still comes responsibility on our part.

      “I am concerned that too many people are focused too much on money and not on their greatest wealth, which is their education. If people are prepared to be flexible, keep an open mind and learn, they will grow richer and richer through the changes. If they think money will solve the problems, I am afraid those people will have a rough ride. Intelligence solves problems and produces money. Money without financial intelligence is money soon gone.”

        “In school we learn that mistakes are bad, and we are punished for making them. Yet, if you look at the way humans are designed to learn, we learn by making mistakes. We learn to walk by falling down. If we never fell down, we would never walk.”

        Robert Kiyosaki, Rich Dad Poor Dad

          “I have found that the more I teach those who want to learn, the more I learn.”

          Robert Kiyosaki, Rich Dad Poor Dad (Page 232)

            “I’ve learned that, without a strong reason or purpose, anything in life is hard.”

            Robert Kiyosaki, Rich Dad Poor Dad (Page 204)

              “Failure inspires winners. And failure defeats losers. It is the biggest secret of winners. It’s the secret that loser do not know. The greatest secret of winners is that failure inspires winning; thus, they’re not afraid of losing.”

              Robert Kiyosaki, Rich Dad Poor Dad (Page 182)

                “Often in the real world, it’s not the smart who get ahead, but the bold.”

                Robert Kiyosaki, Rich Dad Poor Dad (Page 127)

                  “We all have tremendous potential, and we all are blessed with gifts. Yet the one thing that holds all of us back is some degree of self-doubt.”

                  Robert Kiyosaki, Rich Dad Poor Dad (Page 126)

                    “You’d best change your point of view. Stop blaming me and thinking I’m the problem. If you think I’m the problem, then you have to change me. If you realize that you’re the problem, then you can change yourself, learn something, and grow wiser.”

                            “Arrogant or critical people are often people with low self-esteem who are afraid of taking risks. That’s because, if you learn something new, you are then required to make mistakes in order to fully understand what you have learned.”
