Review:"Passion" is mentioned liberally in entrepreneurial books and communities, but the reality is there are very few people in this world that have found their passion. It is a life long endeavor, a constantly moving target, yet many entrepreneurs blindly follow their "passions". In fact, this behavior is praised in the startup world. The fact is that finding ones passion requires a lot of hard work, building up skills, becoming a domain expert, and frequent reflection. Boldness needs to be bala... Read more

Review:If I wanted to know what a file folder or a paperclip was for this would be a very useful book. Defining them in length was a way to add words to this book. Having people go out and spend money on file folders and unnecessary billboards when we live in an age of technology seems silly.

The whole concept of being a vertical thinker is limiting. It is a narrow minded approach to allow lemmings to feel good about what they are doing. It places too much emphasis on thinking in one direction... Read more

Review:Across various stages of life, the author has stated all the things many are too afraid to tell children nowadays, due to fear of being attacked by the PC police. It's honest, quite concise, covers many issues/options in life, including the nasty ones you don't want to think about & even as a book intended for an American audience, many things are still somewhat applicable overseas.

I've yet to buy a book from the Cap'n that has been regrettable- another great piece & a must read ... Read more

Review:Love love love this book, it's been a revelation. I've binned the ineffective to-do list in favour of the MIT and now I'm scheduling everything that matters. This book gave me a major wake up call and Kevin Kruse, I owe you !! Determined not to waste any more of the 1440, and inspired by 'in their own words' I have a new lease of life! Love the way the author relates this to all walks of life, CEO to SAHM and all in between. Great book, such great value. Read more

Review:A cynic toward sequels would note that Steven Covey took only a little more than 300 pages to explain his first seven habits, but 409 pages and an accompanying CD to expound on the eighth. Cynicism aside, however, this book - this 8th Habit - is worth every page. Give Covey credit. He could rest on his laurels and just write bland, non-threatening "how to lead" books and they would all be bestsellers. Covey eschews mediocrity, however, and tells it straight. Most employees experience considerabl... Read more

Review:Leadership is clearly a contact sport and a process of purposeful choice. People have essential needs and requirements and Sinek has a wonderful way of reminding us of that.

Review:Tim Ferris has a gift for pulling ideas together and presenting them in an effective way. I recommend you browse this book rather than attempt to read it as you would read a typical book...page by page. My only problem is that I need a mind stretcher so I can fit all this good stuff into my brain. Maybe on eBay... Read more
