I didn't -- I'm wrong as Heart said -- but I knew I recognized the face and that is how I recognized it -- they could almost be twins..

Tom Hopkins quit college after 3 months and went on to be a multi millionaire less than five years later:

It may not be considered in the self-help / educational gendre -- but he is by far one of the best motivational authors I've ever read.

Added note -- slightly off-topic (sorry Heart) -- but this is perhaps the best book I've ever read on motivational sales technics:
