You might think telepathic is a stretch, but the ability to communicate an ifrom one mind to another is an amazing thing which takes years to develop.

My most recent display of power? Using my telepathic powers, Ive influenced

over 65,000 minds with just 1web design.

With 18 years of professional design, I hit the 10,000 hour marker years aAccording to some statistics, that qualifies me as an expert telepath. ;)

AnACNielsen poll reported that 28% ofAustralianshad not read a singlebook in the previous year. Of the 72% that had, the average was 6.5 books.

That means I read more than 10 times the national average (which doesnt evtake into account the average 1200 blog articles per month that Google Rea

says I consume).

Ive been reading like this for years...and Ill tell you why in just a few slides.

IN THE PAST YEAR IVE READ 67 BOOK
