The longer I live, the more I am convinced that "self educated" people, all come to the same conclusions, or maybe we just all studied Jim Rohn. Regardless, I was doing some research today on a future project and I came across the article below from CS Hughes. I thought it was awesome and I wanted to share it with our readers. This explains exactly why those of you have not yet joined THE MLM TRAINING CLUB, should join today! 🙂
I hope you enjoy the article, truth is truth and when was the last time you heard the term "University on Wheels"? I can remember a time when you could not attend a training event without that phrase being repeated over and over, and as I talk about in the 7 Lies book, it is one of the missing ingredients in today's mlm culture. Time is the most valuable asset we have, turn off your radio, and use it to improve yourself!
I can remember when I went to the Dodge dealership to order my Dodge Viper when they first hit the market. The sales person was so proud of the fact that they came with a CD Player. This was in 94 when CD players were the new thing. I told the guy, I have to have a cassette tape player. He looked at me like I was crazy. I said you don't understand, I have hundreds and hundred of cassette tapes, and if weren't for them, I wouldn't be paying cash for this car!
Cassettes, CD/s or MP 3's just put the right message in your mind and the positive results will follow!
For me, the most memorable part of the movie Superman, is the very beginning when, Kal-El (baby Superman) was placed into that crazy little capsule and sent billions of miles away to planet Earth just prior to the destruction of his home planet Krypton. During his trip, his fathers recorded instruction played continuously, teaching Superman everything he needed to know. And this education guided him throughout his life.
It'd be nice if we were all Superman, and our Super-wise and Super-noble Super-dads made us a killer audio to listen to during the commutes of our lives. Unfortunately, that's not the case. So we need to fill that void.
Best selling author and top by Supreme Savings”>business consultant Brian Tracy teaches to turn your car into a University on Wheels. The idea is to listen to educational audios any time you're in your car.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community by Supreme Savings”>Survey, the average person spends more than 100 hours a year commuting to work and back. I’ve met people who actually commute more than 500 hours a year. And this is just their commute. This doesn't include running errands or dropping off and picking up kids from school. Can you imagine what you could learn if you spent 500-600 hours a year in a University on Wheels?
Recently, I heard of a man in Detroit who worked on an assembly line as an auto worker for 25 years. In 2009, as a result of the recession, he was suddenly laid off. He was devasted, and desperately asked his family and friends, “What am I going to do? All I know how to do is make cars?”
In my mind, it's shameful that a man or woman could be in the work force for 25 years, or any length of time, and have only one skill. If this man had an average commute of 100 hours per year, he would have been on the road for 2,500 hours during his 25 years of by Supreme Savings”>employment as an auto worker. That’s 2,500 hours of education, motivation and inspiration he could have had. This would be the equivalent of 5 1/2 years in school. But the results he could have had would have been far greater than 5 1/2 years in school.
Formal education, or one you might acquire in a by Supreme Savings”>college or university can make you a living. But a self education, such as one attained in a mobile classroom, can make you a fortune. I can’t even conjure up the possibility in my mind that any honest man or woman who truly desires a better life, could invest 2,500 hours into educating, motivating and inspiring their mind and not find themselves at the very top of the socioeconomic latter. This is the by Supreme Savings”>power of this principle. Rather than spend time or waste time commuting, why not make an investment into your mind and into your future, by turning your car into a classroom.
Now more than ever, we need to acquire information quickly. The rules have changed. Today, currency is not gold or silver, or paper funny money. It's knowledge. To make it in the new economy, we need to be learning at a much more rapid rate than ever before, and apply what we learn as quickly as we can. And, turning your car into a university on wheels is an excellent way to do that.
So make it a habit to listen to an educational and positive audio program every day. What do you want to learn? What skills do you want to acquire? Unlike college, you don’t have to take your generals first before you get into the good stuff. You can get into the good stuff right now!
And here’s a tip.
Go to your local library! Less than 3% of our population owns a library card, and yet their free. Recently, I was in my local library browsing their audio section. I was astounded by the number of incredible audio programs sitting on the shelf, just waiting to unleash their power onto and into an open mind willing to receive it. These days, I like purchasing my audios because I value having my own library, however if money’s tight, you have a vast resource available to you in your local library.
