Ok 1 hour book

This book is Ok. It is mainly info about tech CEO’s and have the rose with their ability to keep things simple and perfect that one thing to be good at. This information can easily be found online with wikipedia or anything that shows bios. Not a bad read for something quick though since it is only 1 hour. I don’t regret getting this but if you don’t want to waste your monthly token then get something else. If you have some to spare then this but is an Ok read.

Few anecdotes

The performance could be better. Knowledgeable content on how some of the big tech started which explains why a lot are failing.

Just what I needed!

Definitely a missed opportunity for most other audiobooks. This book gets straight to the point where others just drag on and on. This is exactly what I needed to hear as I’ve taken countless courses and read so many different books and articles but am still stuck! Now this is that magic pill we all need!

Not bad

Really just a few stories of successful people.
Cool to hear the story but no instruction on how to do one thing well.
