Като за книга на 10 години не е чак толкова зле, а и се оказва прав за доста неща. Поне е картичка, по-малко от 4 часа слушане.

Short book and to the point. Covers the technologies to use to get your message across. Gary gives personal examples from his life and shares how he got to where he is today. Technology example is outdated and some services he mentioned no longer exists in 2019 (10 years since book was published), but his core points are still valid today.

Very motivating, but ultimately just a book telling you that you can do anything.

My favorite part about reading this book was that every few paragraphs I found myself hearing Gary's voice speaking the words in my head. That sounds a little crazy, but if you've heard him speak, you'll understand: he's passionate about what he does and it comes out in his speaking and his writing.
It's just a fantastic book about doing what you love in life and working really hard to turn that into a business.

I liked this better than Rework, I felt it was a lot more direct. But I still wasn't thoroughly impressed. I think I mostly got the 'high level' feeling from it, where it was just the basics, not really more down in the trenches like I expected from Gary. But coming from working on a business where I'm already doing pretty much everything he's talking about, it also wasn't going to be ground-breaking for me. For someone that's just getting started, it could be pretty amazing.

Legacy is greater than Currency.
This book shifted a ton of my perspectives. I know a lot of the information is dated in reference to the internet and the platforms, but the words and wisdom that Gary surrounds that information with is so incredibly inspiring and sophisticated in its simplicity. Chapter None was easily the best chapter of any book I have ever read. Thanks, Gary, for being who you are…

Worth the quick read. Teaches you to be passionate about what you do.

I loved this book. An easy read, a great tone and entertaining. It was right in line with what I've been thinking and working toward in terms of my passion and social media. He brings up points I've heard or read elsewhere, but reinforces them all in one place. He is big on staying true to yourself. While Gary is a video blog kinda guy, his advice is to stay true to what your strength is (he calls this your DNA). I don't necessarily agree with his definition of hard work and work ethic. You can work hard and still sleep 7 hours a night, if that's how you choose to make it look. (That's my view anyway) but there is much in here to rally my own passion.
Along with stories which focus on the big-picture of finding and living your passion, he offers practical tips about using social media and monetizing your ideas, all with the caveat that the technology can change in an instant. There's enough in this book, though, to inspire even without the social media tidbits.
He sums up his takeaway message best:
"True success - financial, personal and professional - lies above all in loving your family, working hard and living your passion. In telling your story. In authenticity, hustle and patience. In caring fiercely about the big and the small stuff."
Makes me want to ... well, go out and crush it!

I liked this. It was fresh and inspiring. Only one thing. Crush it? Crush what? The competition? Is it possible for somebody to write a book on marketing without inventing their own loony jargon?
