This has nothing to do with what you studied in school. Instead, this has everything to do with learning in the real world.

These are skills I have noticed in several billionaires. And it seems to be a very common thread. You would rarely find anyone with those 3 skills (in the right environment) who isn’t a millionaire (at least).

And these are very simple but very meticulous skills. Each is almost an art form in itself.

1. Pattern Recognition

There is nothing new under the sun. Everything that is happening today has happened before. At least, a version of it has taken place in the past.

So, it is smart to look to history for patterns that might explain what is going to happen next.

The last time this happened, who got rich? Who made a ton of money? And how did they make the money?

These are questions the super-rich ask. Take the billionaire, Ray Dalio, as an example. He is obsessed with studying patterns from history. And that has done well to help him build a wealth portfolio worth billions of dollars.
