Using the marvelous technology and infinite knowledge of the internet I have built websites for cafes, hotels etc, started this blog and grew it to the point that it pays for my travel expenses around the world in less than a year, got my articles on the first page of google and have been featured in magazines and so many other great things. So now I want to share the free and very few paid courses and resources that helped me do this!

Knowledge isn’t power, it’s only potential power. Execution of that knowledge is true power!

I believe that college degrees are overrated most of the time, in not all but most fields. Many people graduate after years of studying, investing their time, taking on a lot of debt and still can’t get a job. While on the other hand, so many people like me without degrees work doing what they love just because they have the exact skills that the market wants and they can bring value to others. So here are my favorite sites and courses that will help you be the latter.

1. Coursera – Free Courses With Certifications

With huge universities like Stanford, Duke and John Hopkins hosting their courses, Coursera.org is extremely useful if you’re looking to study many different topics, or want courses from different schools and groups. I find Coursera very useful if I want to learn the fundamentals and theoretical part of different fields, it’s not the best for practical (Take-action-now) knowledge but great for fundamentals.

A few of my recommended courses:

2. SkillShare

From learning how to cut your vegetables like a professional chef, learning how to freelance and get clients like a pro to building a website. Skillshare is the best place for practical knowledge that you can apply the moment you learn it! You can view an unlimited number of classes with a pro membership. Most of the classes are short 10 mins videos that provide a lot of value and are amazing if you have a busy day and don’t have much time to learn.

To make it even better for you guys, each and every one of my readers gets a 2 months Skillshare Free Trial membership to test SkillShare out! Click here to redeem the offer

3. Books

I definitely had to give books a mention because books definitely changed my life. I talk about books a lot on this blog and will mention a few of my favorites below. Personally, I read mainly on my phone using the Free Kindle app! I am also a subscriber to kindle unlimited which gives me unlimited reading from over 1 million ebooks. To help you get started with reading, I have found an offer to get a free month trial of kindle unlimited no-strings-attached. Click here to get a free month of Kindle Unlimited!

Audiobooks are a new thing I got into recently, and I can’t recommend them enough! They are so useful to listen to during long bus rides or while at the gym etc! I mainly use Audible by Amazon to buy my audiobooks! I got into it after I tried the Audible free trial & got 2 free Audible audiobooks and I’ve been hooked since!

4. Edx.org

Founded by MIT and Harvard in 2014, Edx.org is an amazing resource with courses from some of the top universities in the world. You can audit most of the courses for free or pay to earn a certification. I have audited tons of courses from Universities across the world, in topics ranging from programming to Astrophysics.

Here are some of my favorite courses:

5. Udemy

I absolutely love Udemy and have taken 100s of courses from them. From learning how to build websites to learning to write better to be better with my time management! Quite a few of the best courses are paid but they are usually worth the investment and also they have a 30-day money return guarantee.

Here are a few of the many courses I took and I would definitely recommend:

6. Google

Google, yes google can teach you so much! There’re so many blogs that you can come across if you are willing to spend a little time blogging and browsing on the internet.

The next time you want to do anything, whether it to make more money or improve your relationship with your rebellious teenage kid, open the “secret” site, google.com and type “How do I ____?” with your goal in the blank, actually do research on how people before you did something, learn what’s necessary and execute. I have seen this simple idea, absolutely change people’s lives.?

Here’re a few cool blogs I like with interesting articles to learn different skills.

7. Youtube

After Google, the biggest search engine in the world is Youtube so if you want to learn something basic for free you might actually be able to find a video about it on youtube!

I very picky with the YouTubers I follow but here are some YouTubers that have brought me a ton of value:

8. Codecademy

Always wanted to learn how to code or program, well here’s how you can do that for FREE! The courses at Codecademy are well written and easy to follow and the website is organized very nicely. The interface includes a live practice window. This means you can practice coding while still viewing the lesson material.

9. DOING

There comes a point when you have to stop reading 100s of books and taking 1000s of courses and just do! Think, test, execute, see what works, do more of that, see what isn’t working and stop doing that. I learn best by actually doing. You can read about climbing mountains but if you never leave the comfort of your house and actually start climbing you will never reach the top, so here’s my final plea!
