“The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.” – Dr. Seuss The depth of which we learn is dependent upon our passion, not our monetary worth. We can control our intellectual capital while our financial capital can be affected by external forces. With the markets ever-shapeshifting, our finances feel like they are kept in a leaky pot, as our inability to hold onto what we make drips away. But what we store in our minds will be safe as long as we continue to help it grow. While increasing how much we make in dollars and cents rarely affects how much we know, there is a direct correlation between increasing our intellectual capital and the subsequent rise of our financial capital. What we are able to accomplish is dependent upon our ability to communicate our ideas as effectively as possible. The only thing holding us back from conveying our ideas productively is what we know. An expert is someone who has increased their knowledge base to an extent that they can now provide value to those around them. We are what we do for those around us. Above all else, intellectual capital is worth far more than financial capital because of what happens when you share it. We know that if we give a fish we have fed someone for a day, but if we teach them how to do it, they can feed themselves for a lifetime. We owe it to our communities to continue the learning process so that we can provide as much value back to from where we came. It is, therefore, our responsibility to those around us that we continue to grow our ability to learn so we can share that much more.; what we invest in ourselves will pay dividends in the lives of others for years to come. One of the great things about learning is that it can take you wherever you want to go; the best part about it is that you can take everyone else along for the ride. (Your intellectual capital will take you wherever you will go.) #DrSeuss #QuoteOfTheDay #Quotes #IntellectualCapital #Learn2Create
