Growing up I hated to read.
You couldn't get me to read anything lol even if my life depended on it lol
But now that has changed for the good
I am a student of personal development / personal growth and cant keep my hands off of this valuable information
There is so much great information available some people just never take the time to read it lol
I was first introduced to the home based business, mlm, network marketing, direct sales, multi level marketing, pyramid scheme, whatever you want to call it
Anyway I was a broke 19 year old college student
I had no clue where who or what I was going to be but I was looking for something
And out of no where I saw the light lol
The rest is history
I have been fortunate to work and train with some of the best leaders in this industry.
Internet marketing experts
Business Consultants
Millionaires as well as a
Billionaire
And the most important thing I learned
Was to work harder on my self
And that's what I have done
I have learned from the best

Never settle for anything less that what you truly desire and most importantly deserve.

how biased
what about music
one cannot call themselfs educated if one does not know about music
not everyone reads
like not everyone plays music
i read though i also understand why someone might not be so inclined to read
does it matter?
like your idealistic views on how people should all read but be realistic for a moment!

I was just like you as a kid. I thought I didn't like reading when, in fact, I love reading books of interest. Barnes & Noble is my second home. Great video.
