Robert Kiyosaki

Everytime I find myself having difficulty solving a problem, be it a financial, business, or personal problem, I remind myself of his [Einstein –‘Imagination is more important than knowledge.’] and shift to the use of my imagination. I have come to realise that problems are only symptoms of rational thinking and an uncreative mind. In other words, the only reason a problem is a problem is because I am using and old solution to solve a new problem. To solve a new problem requires imagination, intuition, faith, and a love of adventure.
Robert Kiyosaki

Every professional investor knows they will occasionally make a mistake and make a bad investment. So professionals know that cutting your losses, as early as possible, is always a strategic option you keep in your bag of tricks. People who need to be right or refuse to admit they made a mistake, often hold onto their losses, refusing to let go. The tricky part is to know when it it’s time to cut your losses. Some people quit too early, some quit too late, and some never quit at all. Amateurs tend to hold onto losers forever because they don’t want to admit they made a mistake.
Robert Kiyosaki

Success reveals your failures.
Robert Kiyosaki

Each failure was actually making me smarter and more confident. Each failure made me less afraid of failing and more excited about learning what I needed to learn next. Each failure was a challenge, the door to the next world. If I was successful, the door to the next world opened. If I failed and the challenge beat me, the door slammed in my face. If the door slammed in my face, it meant I needed to get smarter. I needed to think harder. I needed to use my creativity to find a way to get into the next door. In many ways, it was like being a salesman on the street again, knocking on doors once more.
