When I started my blog I felt the need to combine two ideas that, at first glance, are not connected at all - being an infopreneur and being a careerillionaire (especially since I played a part in making this one up). Actually the two ideas are connected inside me though since an infopreneurial component is part of how I am attaining my careerillionaire status. And I that is really what I want this blog to be about…inspiring others to the careerillionaire lifestyle of customizing their career in a way that encourages their own thriving (aka optimal growth & development).

Sure choosing a career and the world of work on a day-to-day basis is often much more practical than that. And of course, survival needs must be met first. But once a person has gained confidence in their own money making ability they will often begin to assess their comfort and happiness level in the opportunity they have landed. When they decide they want to strive for more, the quest begins.

Looking over my last post brings me to a good question though. There are some great info products out there with giant price tags from people who are well recognized as leaders in their niche. How do you decide which one purchase if any? In my mind, there are two ways to look at it.

One is to think about concepts that you need to know more about but do not enjoy and do not absorb well. I’m thinking delegate the gathering of that info to someone else! That way you hopefully get the best info quickly that you can easily reference over and over. After all, in the end you may just need to know more about those topics in order to find the right partner to cover that base for you.

The other way to look at it is to buy the occasional info product in an area that you too intend to become an expert on. Some area you know and love to learn more about. You have to be careful with this one though. You don’t want to buy the product of someone who is presenting the basics that you are already well beyond. Find the real masters teaching advanced info (and maybe offering some one-on-one or small group mentoring too) to increase the growth and absorption of your knowledge for fast learning and quicker advancement of your ideas.
