GuruA leader is basically defined these days as an expert in any given field or calling. Becoming an expert is relatively easy in our “make everything easy,” “pocorn” society.

I am going to give you the key to becoming a guru. It’s so easy that you are going to “boink” your head when I tell you.

Read five books on any given subject, and you will be an expert in that field of study. What will make you an expert. 99% of people won’t even read the whole first book. If you read 4 more you will be well ahead of the 99% and that will make you a top 1 percent-er in that area of expertise.

Now take that knowledge that you have read about and apply it, then you will even still be in the top 1% of the 1 percent. You will then definitely be a guru in your field.

Now that I have unleashed the secret. The only questions are…

  • Will you become the guru?
  • Will you invest the time in reading and studying?
  • Will you take the time to apply it?
What good will it do you to become a guru and you don't brand
yourself.  Self-branding is important out here on the Net.
If, no one knows your name, you will fall into the countless
other self proclaimed "gurus" out here. Brand Yourself Here.
