Are you sitting comfortably?
How long have been idly 'surfing' today?
Five minutes? Half an hour? An hour? More?
Can you put you hand on your heart and say that you have got something of VALUE from that time you have just spent?
Well?
Now...I'll admit that I'm no 'angel' either where surfing is concerned! (But...I have an excuse in that I need to keep up with what's going on in my business! Honest!)
Seriously though...are you just replacing your TV time with surfing time?
Are you kidding yourself that you are doing something more valuable than just watching TV?
Maybe.
The key question here is...
"What concrete, measurable, and usable information have you APPLIED in return for the time you have spent acquiring it?"
The Internet is, and will continue to be, the biggest 'time thief' in the history of the world.
Within a few short years...our 'addiction' to TV will be surpassed by our quest for 'knowledge' on the Internet.
And...like the TV...the vast majority of people who use this medium will get absolutely NO value whatsoever from the time that they have committed to it.
Now's the time to start thinking of your online 'education' as something that you MUST get a return on.
I believe that it was Einstein who said that you could become a world expert at something within three years if you spent an hour every day learning about it.
YOU have the ideal resource available to you to begin this NOW.
What are YOU going to do about starting to USE it properly?
