In his book Think and Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill explains how just having “school education” will not make you rich. There is a huge number of people who have college education and even college degrees who are not rich and another great number of those will actually never become rich. The reason for this is that knowledge alone doesn’t make anyone rich.
This brings us to our fourth step toward riches which is SPECIALIZED KNOWLEDGE.
What is specialized knowledge?
When we are talking about specialized knowledge, we are not necessarily talking about something you would have to have learned in school. To take some of today’s examples, the richest internet marketers I know have not learned the “specialized knowledge” that made them rich in any school; they’ve learned it because they were putting forth the steps of success which specialized knowledge is part of; even though it’s not the only necessary piece of the puzzle to become successful and wealthy. To see more of those steps toward riches, you can read my other articles on this series, right on this site.
Regardless of our schooling or degrees, we all have some kind of specialized knowledge. Sometimes the only missing piece of the puzzle is getting “the idea” of what our specialized knowledge is. I personally had several areas where I had specified knowledge, but it never occurred to me that I did have this type of knowledge. It took me to start developing my mind by reading self development books and studying with life coaches to become aware of what kind of specialized knowledge I had.
Sometimes, such qualities are dormant deep inside us, until we decide to open up our mind and become conscious of our subconscious mind and start feeding it with new beliefs and ideas. The more you understand your mind and subconscious part of your mind, the more your brain will deliver wonderful ideas where you can start from in order to develop specialized knowledge that can be worth millions of dollars of income for you.
What type of specialized knowledge do YOU have?
Do you have specialized knowledge of cooking, mechanics, writing, websites building, computers, home design, space, sport, cats, dogs, fashion…? The list is infinite just as much as knowledge itself. I am sure that you realized that none of those skills are learned in school and whoever has this type of knowledge have most likely not acquired it in school. For example, I have specialized knowledge in writing, cooking, and the mind, but I have not learn any of these skills in school. None whatsoever!
We know that Thomas Edison or Henry Ford who had not reached as much as Middle School had no knowledge from traditional education, but they did have specialized knowledge, didn’t they? And they applied such knowledge to become the successful men that we know.
Even if you and me are not Edison or Ford, we all have some type of specialized knowledge, and what is more is that we all can go deeper into our mind and find some dormant ideas and bring them up to the surface. Such ideas will transform into specialized knowledge that can and will, if your desire is strong enough, bring you success and riches.
