Must-Read for Money Makers: Cognition is the Wealth Code
The essence of making money is the realization of cognition. Cognition is like a 'perspective lens' on the road to wealth; some use it to see through the essence of money, while others are blinded by the fog —
High-cognition individuals treat wealth as a tool rather than a destination.
Just like Buffett uses the underlying logic of 'value investing' to make precise bets on long-term corporate value amidst stock market fluctuations, turning capital into a snowball effect, ultimately building a trillion-dollar wealth empire. They understand that 'money is a lever to serve dreams,' such as Musk using the business logic of SpaceX and Tesla to let capital follow cognition, which is the advanced way of making money.
Cognition is also a wealth navigation tool; a small step difference can lead to vastly different outcomes.
Look at those entrepreneurs who seized opportunities over the years: some went all in on the content track before the short video explosion, using insights into user demands to hit the rhythm of traffic monetization; some bet on technology research and development as new energy rose, earning a fortune by predicting industry trends. But what about those lacking cognition? During the P2P crash, naive investors followed the trend and lost money, and how many retail investors chased after prices before the cryptocurrency market crash, proving the truth that 'cognitive deficiency = wealth harvester' with their hard-earned money.
In short, making money isn’t just about hard work; it’s about breaking through with cognition: first, understand 'where money comes from,' then think about 'how to make money grow.' College students want to start side businesses? First, figure out platform rules and user needs; workers want to build careers? First, enhance industry cognition and resource integration capabilities. After all, in this era, what can take you from 'wanting to make money' to 'making money' has never been brute force, but the level of cognition in your mind.
