Investing In Yourself

Also, another great strategy is to invest in yourself.  When other stocks are low and waining, you can always get a sure return on a continued education. 

 

I've bought more business/marketing books, gone to more courses, and attended more seminars this past 18 months than ever in my life and I am seeing immediate returns.

You are absolutely right.  We should never stop learning and growing as human beings.
