I really wonder if when Pierre and Jamyla wrote this book they realized what an impact it would have on peoples lives....quite easily one of my favorite books of the last 10 years. It's a 30 minute read...I've bought about 10 copies. Many for others. At least 4 for myself, I think all of which I've ended up giving to complete strangers on the train when they asked what I was reading.

A must have!

Such a major inspiration and source of support as an artist. Sort of a book version of some advice I once received from Ossie Davis about remaining productive and relevant as an artist, no matter what.

Interesting

I am not one for reading self help books. I picked this one up because my twenty something year old son read it and quoted from it. There were some interesting points in the book that will be helpful to those wanting to start their own business, not necessarily for those who have a non-tangible talent.

The author Pierre Bennu, really expressed innovation to the fullest. The words in the book really inspired me and made certain changes to my life. this book is actually the first book i've read from the 1st page to the last, and i'm glad i did

Great read!

For people who need to believe in themselves, it's a great intro to getting motivated.
For those who have heard it all before, it's a good refresher if you have been feeling stale.
Thought there would be a little more, but not mad it was a quick read.

I laughed. I cried. I got up and made some more work!

Such a simple, yet powerful book. Glad to have it in my library.
