I’ve heard it before, “I’ll find time next year for continuing education courses. I’m too busy now.” But the thing is, next year will turn into another year and another. Next thing you know, it will be five years down the road and you still haven’t completed that continuing education you’ve been meaning to.

I’m holding you to your 2016 goal of attending more courses “next year”. Now that we’re four months into 2017, I think you should sign up for an upcoming lecture. I’ve even made it easy for you by including my lectures through September (with links), so you can gain access to all the information right here instead of jumping from page to page.
