Today my thanks go out to a friend of mine in Nashville named Roy Vogt who featured me in his latest column for Eden Electronics. Check it out here and click on Lesson 19 under Music Business Articles.
His highlighting of three excellent books reminds me of something I heard many years ago. If you want to know where you’ll be in five years, look at the books you read and the people you hang around with. It’s called the power of association and books harness that power for your advantage.
Napoleon Hill passed away in 1970, and though he’s very much alive, it’s unlikely that you’ll ever have a chance to spend much time with Steven Covey. As far as Dave Ramsey goes, he’s more accessible because of his radio show and seminars he does all over the country, but even then you’re not really spending one-on-one time with him.
(If you’re wondering who these guys are and/or why I mention them here, go read Roy’s lesson like I recommended earlier)
What each of these people, and thousands of others, have in common is the fact that they have written books full of every important idea, concept and suggestion they know to be critically important for success. Spend five years reading their books and your life is sure to be transformed.
How many books? Well, you’ll have to read Roy’s lesson for the answer to that (remember to pick number 19 under Music Business Articles).
