Read a book.

Hi everyone!

Thought I'd just add this as a tip to your regular business activities. I know it might sound lame, but read a book!

From what I've seen, too many people (for obvious reasons, me included) have started to think of the internet as the one and only source for information, and more specifically, authoritive information. Sometimes they seem to forget that the majority of information available on the internet is because someone is trying to sell something. Not to mention all the content spinners, article rewriters, fluff articles, etc, etc designed to either sell a product, simply feed off of google ads (or other ad networks), etc, etc.

If you buy a book -- they aren't really trying to 'sell' you anything -- because you've already "bought" what they are trying to sell (i.e., the book). Instead you can get really good quality non-hyped information.

Plus, to get a book published, it has to go through certain channels which usually means it has better quality information than joe blow who publishes his random musings on his blog and decides that he is the king and authority on a particular subject, and gets people to believe his way of thinking.

Anyways. Although in this forum there is a lot of good information, don't forget to supplement it with a book! Kinda like taking vitamins with your regular meals! If you are going to be eating greasy hamburgers all day (most content on the internet), make sure you throw in a couple vegetables! (a book).

Cheers,

Johnathan
