Knowledge used widely gains a leverage to obtain more resources and understand more viewpoints and accepted current norms.
So, you have heard that knowledge is power. But have you heard that knowledge when planned and acted on properly can produce wealth quicker. Some of the most successful entrepreneurs know this, they are continually learning from others. Why you say? Why would they bother? Well, because change is enevitable. In today's day and age, change and information are two things that are always in motion, always propelling society further.
It is amazing how much knowledge is available, especially with the internet. But how do you sift throught all that knowledge to find what is relevant. So how can you aquire more knowledge in less time. There are many ways. Set aside a small amount of time per day or week to read. Set a goal of what you want to read and what you want to learn that is new. Still there is alot to read.
One other thing you can do is take a speed reading course. Currently one of the best speed-reading courses is ExecuRead, that can increase your reading speed by more than double your current rate.
If you were to take it one step further, to gain a competitive edge, Book Summaries are a great tool. You have complete books summarized in pages with all the necessary information you need, and less the's, and's etc.
Book summaries can help the entrepreneur with the following:
-Get Ideas You Can Use
-Advance your career
-Boost company profits
-Move your firm into the lead
-Slash Your Reading Time
-Gain A Competitive Edge
-Learn new skills
-Know the latest business concepts
A Carnegie-Mellon Study showed that readers retain more of the content when they read a well-written summary than when they read the book.

Leanne Hoagland-SmithAre your sales where you want them to be? Will you be one of the few who achieves sales or business success or one of the many who have failed to change? Are you tired of being told you are like everyone else? Then you may find my first book on sales of interest. Be the Red Jacket in the Sea of Gray Suits, The Keys to Unlocking Sales available at Amazon or at http://www.processspecialist.com/red-jacket.htm. This book is a reflection of my no-nonsense approach to improving sales to overall business results. If you are truly committed to making sustainable changes, then I can help you secure a positive return on your investment because I focus on executable solutions not telling you the problems you already know you have. From training to corporate (group) coaching to executive one on one coaching, my approach is to assess, create awareness, build a goal driven action plan and then execute. The bottom line question is "Not do you or your employees know it, but do you or they want to do it?" Please call for a free strategy session at 219.759.5601. - Visit Leanne Hoagland-Smith's Website |
