"I'm overwhelmed at all the educational materials out there. It's just so much to learn!"

I hear this or a close version of this statement every week. Either you don't know what to choose from in the SDCIA library or you've purchased or taken a seminar and the materials are sitting around unused. The arduous task of going through all that stuff is intimidating & you don't feel like you can ever learn it all. So you don't; nothing gets learned and now you're ashamed you aren't doing anything. There may be additional pressure(s) from a spouse or other family members of "I told you so!" or "Now you wasted all that money!" Guilt, guilt, guilt!

Want to know how to get through all that seminar material? It'll just be our secret... get closer now...

Read or listen to books or seminars on your subject for 1/2 to one hour and keep a personal journal EVERY DAY.

You'll get through shelves of books and seminars AND retain what you've learned. It takes self discipline to keep it up EVERY DAY... and the rewards are definitely worth it!

We leave this world sometimes quickly and unexpectedly and regret those things we didn't do. So be sure to tell those that matter how much you love them every chance you get!

Zig Ziglar says that you should turn your car into a mobile university! It is amazing the vast amounts of educational material on CD now. I listen not only to investment books on CD but also books on business and autobiographies.
