Pretty inspirational from what I've heard.

Savannah, great way to look at it! It's an investment in you — spend wisely, eh? 🙂

I think it's important for writers to dedicate a certain amount of time and money each month for "continuing education".

It's hard now but I look at as an investment that will give me a great return.

I like the manageable goal of reading one chapter per week.

Devon, Lori – what's TED?

Knowledge is power.

I enjoy local lectures, too. We have a wealth of them between Valley Forge Park and Washington Memorial Chapel. Never a lack for a topic! We've even seen TED talks advertised at the local theater.

I like attending talks, lectures.

I also find the online TED talks illuminating.
