Having read the authors last book, I was looking forward to reading her latest endeavor. As usual, she didn't disappoint.
Our jobs take up so much of our time, and in fact, our entire life. So it's important therefore that we pursue a role that we feel engaged with, and which empowers, rather that robs our time and energy.
At some point in your career, you might seriously consider leaving your job and starting up your own business. Although this notion may sound insane to some, or romantic to others, it's not for the faith-hearted. That's why I was pleased to see Cassandra tackle the real challenges starting a business poses. Things like, finding the right business, how to start with little or no money, and how to leverage it to create a great lifestyle, to name a few.
If you get to a stage in your like where your want to leave your job and start a business, this book will help you. Each chapter focuses on one highly practical aspect to starting your own business. I really like the entrepreneurial personality quiz she provides. It helps give you a good idea of whether this is for you or not.
I felt especially inspired by the true accounts of people who beat the odds by starting a business and how they became successful. This book is clearly laid out, and comes with many links which offer further help. One of those links is a Best Fit Career Workbook.
I also like the authors balanced approach. She doesn't over emphasize the success you'll enjoy as a business owner. She also balances this with the percentage of businesses that fail, and the reasons why.
If you're looking for some extra motivation and methodology, you will be pleased you've got this book. It makes perfect sense, and could be the exact catalyst you need to build you first, or next business.
