Glad I read this one. What to spend time thinking about is just one of the many things to think about when you strike out on your own in business. This is manual for keeping on the shelf and referring to when specific issues come along.

Inspiring and practical, this is the book to read to start your self-employment journey and read again when things go bad or when you find yourself off-track.

I quite enjoyed this book. There were no mind blowing moments, but having it put together this way made me much kore prepared for my self-employed journey.
