There is a newer edition of this item:
Purchase options and add-ons
This book is designed for those new (or early stage) to entrepreneurship or those who have watched from afar and have wanted/wished to join in, but the fear of the unknown has kept them stupefied and in paralysis.
This book will detail the worst (which is not so scary after all) and the best (which is absolutely thrilling) of being in business for yourself and give you the essential skills to be successful (preventing the 66% death rate).
The focus of the book is on the emotional journey one takes when they step onto the wild ride of entrepreneurship. It’s meant to warn (forthcoming fears, doubts and self-defeating conditioning of past/upbringing), inoculate (from the naysayers, dream stealers and pains of rejection and failure) and guide them (building those undeveloped skills of independence, self-motivation and self-accountability) safely past the landmines that blow up (cause failure) of 66% of all new businesses.

I also appreciated the insights he gleaned from the many super successful businessman he's interviewed. I thought those excerpts further reinforced his message. You will recognize some of those names immediately but others aren't as well known. Some of the most compelling quotes came from those successful business people who aren't readily recognizable by the general public.
One key concept that I'm glad he brought up was the idea of practice. For those of you who have read Outliers, that's not a new concept. However, Darren brought up the concept of practice in a dialogue he had with someone who set a goal of reading 32 books. On the surface that sounds like a great goal but Darren gave the person some great advice when he recommended that she instead read 1 GREAT book 32 times. I've found that 95% of the people who attend seminars and read the books stay stuck because they have a low willingness to accept change. They are ready and willing to learn something new but do a poor job in applying the content. They spend years on the "Seminar Circuit" and accomplish very little in real life.
Additionally, Darren provides the reader with resources to get them to really think about their true passions and strengths. "Thinking is the hardest work their is" as Henry Ford once said, and that's why few people do it.
Furthermore, I found the discussion on leadership to be quite helpful particularly with the changing demographics of the workforce. All in all, I would highly recommend this book anyone who is about to take the plunge into entrepreneurship, for existing entrepreneurs who are struggling, and for successful entrepreneurs who may have unconsciously developed some bad habits that could derail their business.
Fasten Your Seatbelts!
there is a lot of really quality material in this one, it's well written and flew by.
As an entrepreneur myself, I can relate to all I've read this far. I applaud Darren Hardy for having the passion, and taking the time and energy that it took to write this masterpiece. I can't wait to read more, yet already, I would love to share this book with the entire world.
I also have to say that I absolutely love how he writes. It is funny, thorough, insightful, enthusiastic, passionate, and straight forward all at the same time. He writes from his own experiences, and that of being the publisher of Success Magazine and having interviewed a cadre of successful entrepreneurs in a wide variety of fields.
And, this book is not just a book. It is a an adventure. It is a road map, It is a resource. It is a master plan. It is a mentor. This is a complete package, well researched and compiled, with all manner of helps and loads of encouragement.
If you've ever thought even just a little about being in business for yourself, this book will be well worth your investment in time and money.
