Knowledge is power, this was true in 1758 and is still true today. Education is an essential component to success in life, business and anything else that we approach from day to day. Franklin spoke these words saying that if we limit our ability to learn whenever we can, we will drastically reduce our success. He was not saying that we have to read every book written, attend every class given and master every discipline in the world. He was saying that we need to open ourselves to knowledge every day. Each experience we have can teach us something. Every person we speak with can open up our eyes. Try something new whenever you can and embrace everything that the world offers us. The more knowledge we acquire, the more we can adapt ourselves for success.
An Investment in Knowledge Pays the Best Dividends.
Benjamin Franklin, The Way to Wealth; 1758
