What if I tell you that you can be successful by investing $10 every month?
Do you believe that this is possible and would you like to know the answer what to invest in?
I hope you already know the answer before I tell you. The answer is to invest in yourself.
By simply investing $10 into yourself reading an improvement book will do. The key is to position yourself to be an expert in your field.
No matter who you are today, a teacher, a manager, a soldier, a pizza delivery boy, a salesman, a student, a mother, a father, a chef, an engineer, a blogger, an athlete, etc.
You have to become the expert or be in the top 5% in your field if you want to be successful.
So here is what you can do with $10 each month. Save $10 every month to buy a book that will help you to improve yourself in the field you want to excel in.
$10 a month is not much. And I believe everyone can afford this.
Think about it. If you’re a salesman and you invest yourself by buying a book that teaches you how to double your sales, do you think it is going to help you to build a brighter future? Do you think you will be able to achieve better success?
The answer is obvious. What if you are a student? No worries. You can buy books that will teach you how to study and boost your brain power. You can learn how to speed-read and free up your time for doing exercise.
What if you are a father? Do you want to be a good daddy that really cares about the family? Guess what, you can get a book in this topic and learn all the tricks and tips about how to become a good father.
The key is to constantly improving yourself to become the best in what you do in your life.
Hey listen, life is short and I believe you want to live your life to the fullest. If you don’t believe that life is short, look at your age right now.
What have you accomplish for the last 5 years? Do you want to stay the same for the next 5 years?
If you want to be successful, you must do this – keep on improving yourself and live a quality life.
Learning and improving constantly in your life is one of the main purpose of life. In fact, achieving success is not about the end results that you are going to get. It is not about the money or the materials that you get in the end.
It is about becoming the person you want to be. It is about the journey you have been through and the experience that you learn that forge you into a successful person.
Thus, stick to this plan by investing in a book each month. Read at least a book each month and you will see the difference in you real soon.
If you can follow this plan for even a year, you will be reading 12 books and learning a ton of knowledge. You’re better than many other people in the world who most probably won’t read a book after they get out of their school.
What if you continue to do so for the next 3 or 5 years or even 10 years down the road? Can you imagine the positive impact that this is going to cause in your life?
Let me give you an example. Let’s say that you are passionate with investing in real estate and you want to be a millionaire real estate investor. So you follow through this plan and you learn all you can about real estate.
You read books each month, you update yourself with the latest market trends, you know where is the latest project development, the pros and cons of a location, you know the pitfalls and you know how to avoid making a lousy investment in real estate.
And one day you flip the newspaper and you saw a golden opportunity. You saw an advertisement saying that such and such property for sale below the market price. You know the location very well and you know the rule of the game as a result of your learning effort.
And you decide to take action to buy this property. After that, you flip the property for a nice profit or you rent it out for good return on investment.
Now, stop for a minute and think about this, if you don’t read, learn and improve yourself in the field of real estate, do you think you dare or have the confident to make that investment?
The answer can be a yes or a no. If you make that investment, you will earn.
After all, learning and improving can make success easier for you, however, you will still need to take action and apply what you have learned to make it work for you. Are you willing to do it?
There is no doubt that learning and improving can greatly shortcut the road to your success. What you need then, is to take action and apply what you have learned.
Don’t just buy books and put them aside. Read them and use the knowledge that you have learned. That is real power!


This article is very true .allot of people don’t seem to realize that financial education is one of the most important part of becoming rich. they seem to think all rich people got that way by chance (bunch of retards) but that’s not the case.
and as one wise man said.formal education will make you a living but self education will make you a fortune
and i agree with that because school lacks the potent information you need to make those billions. too much people believe college is the one and only way and if your one of them then u need to grow up and get a clue.
i am 17.and my goal is to make 10 billion in some decades from now. ive started reading books in 2008
i have read only 24 so far.
i have literally about 130-150 more to go.
And by the way shawn i write some articles you may like to post.contact me! im an author myself

Hi Shawn,
Well put…there’s no btter truth than that. You are what you read and therefore will think likewise.
Excellent article – very refreshing. But to persist and stay focussed, that’s the difficult part.
I agree with Konya, I couldn’t stop reading either. You are very motivational and inspiring. I watched Elon Bowmani’s rags to riches story on “The Talk”. She said she went to the library and typed millionaire into google, and learned everything there was to learn. That is how I found your site today. Well written.

Thoughts like these really propel you to think strategically & hopefully one day join a millionaires club . You really make people become a success if that’s what they want to do! Thanks!
