This book was listed on a LinkedIn article: The16 Best Business Books of 2016
So I added them books into my “wish list” of
books to read on amazon. Current backlog
is over 100 books… I have a lot of
reading to catch up.
A few weeks ago I subscribed to bookbub.com. I rarely subscribe to these sites because I
hate my e-mail account getting all spammy.
What this site does is send you an e-mail everyday a list of a few books
on bargain deals. E.g. this book was
sold on amazon (digital version) for $1.99.
Now it’s back to $16.99. I like it.
I watched a few of Gary’s youtube online and
they were really motivating and blood pumping.
People now a days always seem to be overworked – or appear that
way. I’m not sure if most genuinely believe
that, or they had to act like that so their bosses think they work hard and
they can keep your job. I’m more of a
believer of people not managing their time well. But if you really do manage your time well,
Gary’s probably the best example of what hustling is.
Sweat equity.
Hard work. Door to door. You name it.
This is a book on challenging yourself if you’ve
really hustled enough. Motivation and
passion on steroids. Gary also believes
we should all double down on our strength instead of being “well-rounded” like
how we are raised.
Life is hard by itself already. Entrepreneurship makes it even harder. So often I have to wallow in my self-pity
party. Reading this book helps remind me
to keep at the right mind set: “If you want to be an entrepreneur – if
that’s what you really, really want – you cannot give a shit about what other
people think of you. Not even your
parents.”
Like Zig Ziglar says, “People often say that
motivation doesn't last. Well, neither does bathing - that's why we recommend
it daily.” This was a good bath with a
jetted tub.
