Learning List

[box type=”shadow”] Staying informed and continuously acquiring knowledge is key to maintaining one’s value. Below is a master list of content sources and techniques for scanning through so much material. I highly recommend spending time each day to do as much reading as you can.[/box]

Getting Started:

  • The easiest way to aggregate all these sources of content is to use the http://my.yahoo.com portal to source in most of these sites which have RSS feeds.
  • Many of these sites have email subscriptions.
  • FlipBoard (the mobile app and website, https://flipboard.com/) is also another great way to subscribe to a large variety of sources.
