Listen to episode 550 of the Inspirational Living Podcast: Planning for Success in Business & Life. Edited and adapted from Personal Power by Keith J. Thomas. Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: In training the mental faculties, we should keep before us the Greek ideal of all-around-fitness. Too many people are foolishly anxious about discovering some particular branch of knowledge which it will pay them to study. Knowledge should be pursued for its own sake. It’s been said: “Seek fortune and it flies from you, treat it casually and it follows you.” This means that if you go upon the principle of getting the most out of your daily life and doing the most work you can every day you live, your life's work will open itself out. Only by acquiring all the knowledge you can, will you find what particular branch of knowledge is of most use to you. Be sure that all information worth acquiring will be of use to you someday or other, sooner or later. You can learn something worth knowing from everyone you meet — something which will be useful to you in later life, though the information may seem useless to you at the time. All the greats of history acquired knowledge wherever they could; they extracted it from all the people they met, stored it in their minds, and used it when the proper time came.
