I had the pleasure to spend the afternoon with a fellow speaker who is quite the legend in our business. He’s had an illustrious career and has done extremely well for many decades. Something struck me about him that compelled me to change what this newsletter was going to be about. He is young at heart, but not so in age. He also has the fortune to not need to change his business to keep up with the times because, as he puts it, he can afford to put the milk and orange juice in the fridge for many years to come.

Yet when we got on the topic of digital marketing and social media, he was all ears. He asked lots of questions and even took notes! He didn’t scoff at the idea, and instead listened for ways he could apply some of the things we discussed to his business.

I realized that the majority of the people I’ve met who have been blessed with long, successful careers, all had this same openness to the digital world. My friend Ralph Nichols from Dale Carnegie was first person to teach me about being a lifelong learner. He’s had huge success spanning 50+ years, but he was front row for my social media workshop last year. He is a lifelong learner.

They were all lifelong learners.

That’s it. It’s the one thing that I can put my finger on that almost every one of them had in common. They remain open to learning. They never stop. They enjoy it!

So that’s what I commit to doing – and I hope you will to.

With that in mind, I’d like to recommend a book from one of my dear friends, David Newman. This is the only book I’ve ever recommended…twice. But he’s the real deal. You will learn things in this book that will truly help your business be more successful in years to come. I promise you will love it.

Below are a few additional notes about his book and why today is a great day to pick it up.

Warren Buffett is famous for saying that the best investment is an investment in yourself. I’ve come to realize that ultra successful people believe that as well. Let’s keep learning together and I look forward to sharing success with you for many years to come.
