A pretty good book. Some parts are your usual “self help” rehashes, some parts are simply boring. You will identify those easily, just skip them. Other than that, book is interesting and has some good points of view. The best part of the book is the appendix :)) Author lists “principles”, which are actually just very succint and to the point facts and tips from each of the chapters. If you want to save on time, you can just read those but you will miss out on author’s stories on his vast experience, which are sometimes really interesting.
I actually received this book from my dean, who personally met the author, and my copy is signed by Dr. Pickard—how cool is that? The book itself is short, straightforward, and to the point. I gave it a 3.75 rating because most of the principles were already familiar to me—it felt more like a refresher on the fundamentals of entrepreneurship rather than something brand new. Still, I appreciate the wisdom shared, and I have to say: RIP to such an inspiring and accomplished man.
I heard about this book on Sirrus Urban View as William was being interviewed, just looking for information on how to invest my money. When I read it, it was so much more; this book breaths life to the common man or woman. It makes you want to achieve in life, I made it a text book for a small group of millennial potential entrepreneurs. Great read
This is a great read! The principles shared are based on Authors experience, but are grounded on fundamental principles in life. I definitely will apply a few.
