Summary

“Always stay intellectually curious” - Naveen Jain

(click to tweet)

The saying goes, “you can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink,” to demonstrate that if someone doesn’t want or is unwilling to do something for themselves that would be good for them, there is little you can do. But if you focus your efforts instead on how you make the horse thirsty, you’ve solved the problem.

This thirst is what Naveen Jain says anyone who wants to be successful needs to cultivate. It is intellectual curiosity, and a desire to constantly learn, and it is what separates the greats, those who are super successful, from the rest.

If you want to be successful, you need to cultivate inside yourself this desire to learn. Find out how billionaire Naveen Jain learns every day, on this episode of The Tai Lopez Show!

Points to Keep In Mind

Google everything
Always stay intellectually curious
Learn based on the future more than the present
As an entrepreneur, your jobs is not to focus on where the world is now, but where you want it to be
Instead of leading someone to water or making them drink, consider instead what would happen if you just made them thirsty
Intellectual curiosity is that thirst
Every time you read something, it’s like connecting a dot, and sometimes you don’t see the picture until the last dot
Think of the life of an entrepreneur as a heartbeat: When it’s smooth, you’re dead
The only time you fail in life is when you give up
