Today I will leave you on a little secret that I read at least four BOOKS EVERY MONTH, without any additional time from my everyday use.

Every single person I know success is focused on learning a day, and it is no coincidence. Top entrepreneurs know that ongoing education is an absolute necessity.

I do not mean the kind of education in the school, you get in those dusty old text books that were full of boring numbers and graphics.

I mean, a different kind of education that is more concerned with “street smarts” than book smarts.

Did you know that the majority of people never read a book again after high school? Our education system leaves such a bad taste in the mouth of the people. If we are forced to learn, we fear the end of the process, but embraced it.

I know that in my own life, it was not until I was out of school that I really began to love learning. I realized one day that learning not only for reading, writing and arithmetic. You could literally learn how to do something in life.

Whether you want to get in shape, more creativity, build assets, or to start a business. . . It is a learnable skill.

And you do much the same way learned in school. You start by surrounding yourself with people more about the subject than you know. Then you read, hear and see everything they have to teach. Mimic the best, to a level of mastery, where you can achieve on your own ability to innovate.

When I realized the importance of learning has started I try to read more books about the economy. The problem was that there never enough time. Sure, I could try to read a chapter a day, but the time would be met every day with something urgent, and the reading would be done before.

I literally had a stack of books that I wanted to read, and was not making much progress.

That is, until one day I discovered a secret to success I learned from a man named Brian Tracy. The secret was to start audiobooks in my car while I drove.

You see, every day I had to drive somewhere. There was no way I could forget to drive a car, or not enough time to go. Every day I wanted somewhere no matter what drive so that it was built to my life.

I finally came to more and more successful people who listen to all by this strategy. Pretty soon I was going through a book a week to tape. I would even “read” books while I was in the gym, taking public transportation or flies (so even if you do not drive, there are still possibilities).

For me the real beauty of listening to books on tape that I got to hear someone’s voice, and this is how I learn best. It was like I was surrounded myself with these great authors. Everyday, their way of thinking and great outlook on life changed the way I thought. I heard their voices and ideas as much, it was like they were my own friends I could not leave!

Some people are audio learners and learn best when someone talk to hear (like me). Some people are visual learners and learn best when they see the words on the page (I have another secret for you in my online course). A small percentage of the population even touch learners and learn best when moving their body or hands.

If you learn by listening or hearing words in any way shape or form, then audio books are the secrets you’ve been missing to learn more each day, without any additional time out of your day.

Life is simply too short to listen to Britney Spears and Snoop Dogg to spend on the radio. Instead, start each time you read done ever thought possible today by listening to audio books.

A big one is first to hear Brian Tracy’s, The Psychology of Achievement, which you purchase online.

You can get audio books on services, such as www. audible. com (Amazonas. com audio books), you can download MP3′s to burn CD’s or use on your MP3 player.

They are often a bit cheaper than the actual book. You can also record audio books for free at your local library, and some free online. Finally, I have a handful of friends who listen well to audio books and we always share.

Start listening to audio books today, and you will automatically start devouring great books at an incredible pace.
