Words of Wisdom: Robert Kiyosaki

Robert Kiyosaki is an investor, author, and motivational speaker.  You probably have heard of his Rich Dad Poor Dad books.  That series was part of my inspiration in naming this site An Introduction . . . 

Here are some of my favorite Robert Kiyosaki quotes:

  • Your business revolves around your asset column, as opposed to your income column. The rich focus on their asset columns while the poor and middle class focus on their income columns
  • Remember to dream big, think long-term, underachieve on a daily basis, and take baby steps. That is the key to long-term success
  • You need to understand the difference between an asset and a liability. An asset puts money in your pocket and a liability takes money from your pocket. The rich understand the difference and buy assets, not liabilities
  • Your future is created by what you do today, not tomorrow
  • The size of your success is measured by the strength of your desire; the size of your dream; and how you handle disappointment along the way
  • Your mentors in life are important, so choose them wisely
  • The only difference between a rich person and poor person is how they use their time
  • Academic qualifications are important and so is financial education. They're both important and schools are forgetting one of them
  • The poor, the unsuccessful, the unhappy, the unhealthy are the ones who use the word tomorrow the most
  • Most people never get wealthy simply because they are not trained financially to recognize opportunities right in front of them. The rich have learned to recognize opportunities as well as how to create them
  • The rich invent money
  • Tomorrows only exist in the minds of dreamers and losers
  • Inside of every problem lies an opportunity
  • Remember, your mind is your greatest asset, so be careful what you put into it
  • Face your fears and doubts, and new worlds will open to you
  • If you want to go somewhere, it is best to find someone who has already been there
  • Today is the word for winners and tomorrow is the word for losers
  • When people are lame, they love to blame
  • He said, 'Raise your price. Make it ridiculous. 'That would make people perceive it as a value
  • Great opportunities are not seen with your eyes. They are seen with your mind
  • The poor and middle class work for money. The rich have money work for them
  • You have to be smart. The easy days are over

The last one is my favorite of this batch of quotes.
