Before readingWhy I picked it up

A small and quick read for some actionable ways to make investments in your career and personal life.

After readingPosted January 15, 2016

Advice from a number of experts on how to generate new opportunities, cultivate your creative expertise, build valuable relationships, and take bold, new risks so that you can utilize your talents to the fullest. The book did feel like I was reading a collection of blog posts, which might have some truth to it. I did gain some good lessons from the book, but a good chunk I've heard before as I'm not new to the productivity space.

Three reasons to read it

  1. 01Good collection of modern career advice
  2. 02Learn how to take more risks and grow your career expertise overtime
  3. 03Learn how to build collaborative relationships(networks)
