Don't waste your time, read the actual book.

Not detailed, only references actual book. Do not recommend, hurt read the real book and save yourself the time. The only good thing is to get your mind thinking business process but the cliche of following your dreams to monetise is obvious and this book does nothing at providing realistic advice on that front.

I thought this book was excellent. It had a lot of great ideas really and good suggestions…..things I hadn’t thought of. I think I would need to listen to it again probably a few more times to really soak it all up but I would definitely recommend to anyone even contemplating starting their own business, or if you have something you really really love to do.

Good advice!

It's a good book. But there are no much details. It can be read in 30 mins. Don't buy the printed version. Just buy Kindle version for 1 or 2 USD.
