    Did you learn it all by yourself or had some mentors?

    Life is a continous learning curve, and learning something new each day is very fullfilling :)

    I wouldn't say everything that I achieve until today are all without a helping hand. In fact my parents always guide me along.

    I learn from everyone and from reading, TV, radio and the Internet. My parents knew the basics and pointed me in the right direction.

    Most of the people here are self taught.

    A mentor mostly happens to be a person close to you , and most people in the real world aren't really aware that something like SEO and internet marketing exist.

    My parents bought me a Vic-20 in 1984, the rest is down to me and my curiosity.

    I learn by coming to places like DP. Then I take what I learn and put my own twist on it.
