The Best Investment Possible, Is Investing In Yourself

December 8, 2006

As I was programming my website today I came across a ton of information about making my site secure. Unfortunately, I did not know how easy it was for people to hack into sites. After reading an article by a security guru, I decided to book and found my self going on a shopping spree. But what would Wes buy, I’ll show you.

The best investment you can make is investing in yourself, becoming a better person. I’m going to have the privilege to be a public speaker at our upcoming events, I’m going to start this web 2.0 community for a sellout, and learn how to program. What better way than to learn from the experts themselves. I went ahead a purchased a bunch more books for my library. In life, they put the valuable things on the top shelf, in order to reach them we have to stand on the books we read. Take a look at this post for a perfect example of an 18 yr old, who has a multimillion dollar company because he has become a multimillion dollar person by developing himself.

In other words, as Jim Rohn says, “Learn to work harder on yourself than you do on your job, if you work hard at your job you’ll make a living, if you work hard on yourself you’ll make a fortune.”

Investment in Books: $ 150

I’m sure you will agree with me, that I will go a lot more value than $150 out of theses books. What are you reading? “The person who can read and doesn’t, is the same as someone who can not read at all.” In other words, if you can study success in whatever field you want to pursue, and don’t read books that teach you how to have success in certain fields, than you are the same as an individual who can not read books.  Take a look at the books I just purchased for myself, wouldn’t you agree that they will help me.  Wouldn’t you also agree that they would probably help other people if they read it.  The challenge is, that most people simply do not read life changing information.

Here the books are that I just purchased, I’ll take a picture of my library in progress. All houses over $200,000 have a library in them.  Why is that?  It’s a clue, start a library it’ll change your life.
