"The entrepreneurial journey is a combination of experience, education, and execution" ~ Altovise Pelzer

There will always be those willing to debate the value of education over experience and vise versa. It goes further back than history has even documented. The thing we must understand in business is that no matter what form of education you receive, it is what you do with it that matters most. Becoming an information hoarder does not bring you any closer to your dreams. In fact, when we spend loads of time, energy, and money collecting information we can find ourselves with analysis paralysis.

It is time to get moving and to tao into the education that will move you forward on your journey.

In this episode, Dr. David shared his insight on education, experience, and opportunities that impact the lives of entrepreneurs.

Dr. David's nuggets;
~ Go back and get your degree no matter how long it takes. People don't ask you how long it took.
~ Education allows you to create a new world for yourself
~ Once you educate your mind the world belongs to you
~ There are various ways to educate your mind (Secondary degree, certifications, books. webinars, coaching, etc.)
~ Your past does not determine how far you can go in your future
~ Anything worth having is going to cost you
~ You can do anything when you make up your mind to do it

"There's nothing that I could not accomplish and everything in life I knew I could receive it through an educated mind" ~ Dr. David Walker
