Karl Newman’s Education

School of Life...

Ph.D in Results... , Personal Performance , 1985 — 2008

A great Philosopher once said… “A formal education will get you a job, but a self-education will make you a fortune.

Training and education has never really been work for me. I love what I do… it is both my Business and my Passion. My personal philosophy about learning and about life, is to “INNOVATE or EVAPORATE”

Activities and Societies:

I have dedicated over 25 years of study in the fields of Business, Sales and Communications, and have built a Personal Development Library of over 10,000 books, and thousands of audio and video training series. I invest time everyday to learn something new.

As Benjamin Franklin once said… Take the coins from your pocket and put them in your mind, and your mind will fill your pocket full of coins… In other words, invest in your own self-development and you will be richly rewarded..
