Feed Your Head!

"If you spend as much feeding your mind as you do your body, you will never have to worry about a roof over your head or food for your body."-Albert Einstein.

How true! The old statistic used to be that people were 7 times more likely to have a Blockbuster Video card than they were a library card. Now that Redbox and Netflix have all but put Blockbuster out of business, I don't know how well that would hold today. The interesting thing is that less than 10% of adults will read a non fiction book after they are done with their schooling.

Life can be learned by trial and error which is quite expensive. Or you can learn from other people's mistakes and successes. Many of these experience are chronicled in books and audios. If you don't have the means to purchase the books, hit your local library.

When I first met Les Brown, he told me something that has stuck with me since; "Never stop learning, earning, or yearning." Don't shift your life into neutral. Grow your mind, grow your relationships, grow your business!
