The Price for knowledge

The Price for knowledge! 

 What is the price for knowledge? Almost everyone finds themselves asking this question, it always leaves a huge question mark imprinted on our minds. 






       When speaking of the price to pay for knowledge, it does not stop at paying to learn a skill or to obtain mastery in something, it goes way beyond that. The knowledge you gain is usually in inverse equivalent  with the price you pay. 


To break it down; if there are 100 pieces of knowledge to gain, and to gain a piece of knowledge you need to pay a price, unquestionably, to get all the pieces of knowledge you will need to pay 100 prices if you go ahead to pay 50 prices, you end up with just 50 pieces of knowledge 


Inverse Equivalent/Harmony


The word “Price” here, contextually, can be substituted for sacrifice, cost, rate, fee, etc. 








Realistically, nobody sleeps and wakes up with knowledge, YES! Anyone can wake up with an idea, but the idea alone isn't the knowledge, but knowledge forms while excavating deeper into an idea/thought.

  





The Wright brothers who invented the airplane had an idea, and to utilize that idea they needed knowledge; according to research, the mechanical knowledge they accumulated was a result of working and studying for years in their bicycle, motors, and printing press workshop. Furthermore, it cost them about $1,000 as of 1900/1904  to construct the plane. 

NB: The money spent on research was not included. 




Now I presume the idea of the “PRICE” is getting clearer:

Everyone desires to possess knowledge but only a few are willing to pay the price, the sacrifices you need to make to build up knowledge are as vast as the sea but The goldfish in The sea is YOUR TIME because even if You decide to pay monetary value for learning if you don't take your time to study, explore and be consistent, you have just successfully squandered your money. 

You must be prepared to pay the price for knowledge or you'll end up paying the price for your ignorance, and just so you know, the price you pay for ignorance is far more tremendous than the price you pay to get knowledge. 

You should sacrifice today for your tomorrow, Sacrifice/Price and Knowledge are two sides of the same coin, you can't have just the head or the tail, You either have the whole coin or have nothing. 




In pursuit of knowledge, many have lost friends, acquaintances, and other things/relationships. Nevertheless, people are not destroyed for lack of money or friends but for lack of vision and lack of knowledge.  Understand and acknowledge that you will have to deny yourself of some things to accomplish your goals. As long as you're willing to pay the price, no matter how high it is, in the long run, you will be surprised by what you get in exchange.




In conclusion 


The price for knowledge is literally your LIFE! 

Time is your Life. 

Pay the PRICE! 


To know is to be free, but to know is not free.

4 WAYS TO TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR TRADE/BUSINESS TODAY!

Image
Written and Edited by  Ijewemen Fortune When you ask people what they think the way to success is, you will listen to some mention connections, while others money, and other frivolous things that should not even be at the top of their bucket list when it comes to building a business, your brand, your trade or whatever personal entrepreneurship or work you take part in.  Now don’t get me wrong it’s not that these fortes are not significant, of course, they are, let’s not even start talking about the perks of having connections and money. One thing you need to take note of as an average human being is that connections do not fall from the sky! Connections are earned, money is earned, and when these become the top of your bucket list when asked what you think the way to success is in your career path, they become insignificant because everything is on a hierarchy and connections do not rank as number 1.  Let’s talk about a few methods that have proven to be considerably empi...

Your Work, Your Input, Your Output, and Your value

Image
Your Work, Your Input, Your Output, and Your value Yes what you think we're about to talk about, is actually what we‘re about to talk about.   As humans, we often find it difficult to rate our Work over Value, and why is that? It's because most times we're not sure if what we're doing is worth the value we're placing on it or vice versa. Confused? Okay, let's go step by step.  Defining the terms:  The term Work refers to your job, skill, career, craft, etc.  The term Input refers to the energy you put into your Work to become a better version of what others are. The term Output refers to how you bring your work to the public eyes, putting yourself in front of everyone ( this is what I do, this is how I do it, what are your thoughts? You like? Or nay? etc.) And last but not least Your Value, now, this will be divided into two sub-sections; The Value you place on yourself: this could be monetary value, self-evaluation value, etc The Value others place on you: This...

Why you need a VISION

Image
  Written by Ijewemen Fortune What is a VISION? Vision is a major  illustration with many elements that constitutes what you want your everyday life to resemble . These “divisions” might incorporate spiritual affinity; family and friends; health; cognitive, emotional, and individual growth; love and relationships; and career, finance, and business. Vision goes beyond what you want, it transits into why you want it also, the reason why you want what you want greatly affects what you will do and the lengths you'll go to get what you want.  Why is having a vision important?  E.N Howie once said “ Vision is the ability to see what is invisible to others and the audacity to believe, build and pursue it until it is visible to others”.  Some people think it's a frivolous waste of time to create a vision for their life but in reality, it's not. The ability to envision what you want for your life is a bold step toward achieving your dreams.  With a clear vision in m...
