The narrator keeps this dry material from getting too boring. I learned a lot and highly recommend this book.

this audiobook isn't bad but it doesn't have the feel of an actual business book. perhaps it's due to the author having a background in journalism or maybe it's a cobbled together collection of blog posts. I like the book and there is wisdom contained in here on self promotion that I found fascinating and useful. one key ingredient that isn't discussed in detail is that you need expertise in something.

After reading that this was one of the books that most strongly influenced Steve Jobs, I decided to give it a read (or listen). Glad I did. It's counterintuitive and theoretically sound. Important advice to firms on maintaining themselves in dynamic markets.

I found the authors take on entrepreneurship as a lifestyle, as opposed too just a way to make money, refreshing,

the contents of this book almost exactly reflect the humbleness and simplicity the author advocates for. it took me a while to see this. I expect to be listening to this one many many more times.

I enjoyed all the stories about other entrepreneurs but it lacked real substance compared to other books like the lean startup.

This book explores the realm of consciousness and how we can enhance it without dogma. I highly recommend this book although it felt incomplete at the end. Perhaps that's why Harris said he was looking to start a conversation with this work because there is so much more research that can be done.

Detailed discussion of minimalism that isn't full of new age... stuff. The author may be Japanese, but his thoughts are relevant to anyone living in a market economy. I highly recommend this book to anyone suffering under the weight of their things.
