Stealing is not bad if you steal the right things
…
If you steal things, they will last until they are used up.
If you steal money, it will last until you spend it all.
If you steal power, one day you will lose it.
If you steal fame, one day it will fade.
If you steal people, they will last until someone else steals their hearts.
….
If you steal knowledge, it will be with you until your last breath.
“If I read a book that cost me $20 and I get one good idea, I’ve gotten one of the greatest bargains of all time.”
We are too busy trying to steal things that we cannot keep, and forgeting about knowledge. Instead of trying to steal someone’s success, learn how they build it. Steal their knowledge and build your own. If you didn’t build something, it is never yours.
- Instead of being jealous => Ask people how they did it
- Instead of killing yourself for doing something wrong => Ask people what you did wrong and fix it.
- Instead of talking about yourself => Ask people questions about their lives, their success
- Instead of complaining about wasting time waiting for something => Open an ebook app and read
- Instead of stealing the wrong thing => Steal knowledge
The difference between where you are today and where you’ll be five years from now will be found in the quality of books you’ve readJim Rohn
Wealth, power, fame will fade; only knowledge will remain with you. Most people are willing to share it, why don’t steal something that people do not mind.
Keep stealing…keep stealing knowledge…
It is your turn: Have you ever steal knowledge?

@cammipham been stealing people ideas and now i’m a mess

I enjoy reading your blog. I am a big fan of stealing knowledge. Students ask me what I believe and to explain my theories. I tell them I have stolen from so many great therapists that I can’t remember what’s theirs and what’s mine. At some point stealing ideas and knowledge is just learning and integrating. I like your writing style. It’s very fresh and intriguing. Keep it up.
