Quotes & Tips from Novice to Expert
Choose quality learning sources
The scam artist is another person you should avoid at all costs. The truth is some industries are filled with “gurus” who promise to teach you everything they know for the low, low, low price of 12 installments of $97 per month.
Vision
Most people overestimate what they can do in one year and underestimate what they can do in ten years. – Bill Gates
What I don’t recommend is convincing yourself that it’s necessary to master a skill in the next month. This will only lead to frustration and burnout when you don’t see instant results. Instead, it’s better to focus on daily effort and celebrate those small wins as you work your way through the process.
Process

You can learn anything—if you’re willing to commit to the process.

Learning Styles
