Knowledge is Power? — the money making art

in steemiteducation •  6 years ago 

I believe there are two kinds of knowledge. One is general, the other is specialised. General knowledge, no matter how great in quantity or variety it may be, is of but little use in the accumulation of money. The faculties of great universities possess, in the aggregate, practically every form of general knowledge known to civilization. They specialise in teaching knowledge, but they do not specialize in the organization, or the use, of knowledge.

Knowledge will not attract money unless it is organised and intelligently directed through practical plans of action to the definite end of accumulation of money. Lack of understanding of this fact has been the source of confusion to millions of people who falsely believe 'money is power'. It is nothing of the sort! Knowledge is only potential power. It becomes power only when, and if, it is organised into definite plans of action and directed to a definite end. I believe this is crucial.
