I have been to university, I have been to $15,000 dollar seminars, I’ve been in masterminds & I have mentors. You know where I have learned most of my knowledge is definitely from books and this is awesome because books are readily accessible from anywhere in the world and you can buy them on Amazon and everyone has access to them and there is so much knowledge to be gained through books.
