How exactly do I make more money? One word: Investment.

I am a learner. I have invested (there’s that word, “investment”) a lot of time learning. As a matter of fact, earlier today, like every other day, I spent time learning. This morning, while on the way to work, I spent 45 minutes listening to two podcasts. On the way home tonight, I will spend another 45 minutes listening to an audiobook—simply learning.
I am a true believer that the more I learn, the better I will be and the more I will earn. Truly, it works. How do I know? Well, I now make a lot more than when I started in this business, and my team is one of the highest paid in the industry. It pays to invest in learning.

Make it a point to learn about one product you use every day! This type of information is easily found online. Everyone has a computer, and there are people in our industry who will teach you if you ask.
