A story I couldn’t stop listening to

Revisado: 12-10-22

Over four years of experiences and feelings, the book made me see how far a person can push himself through challenges. I plan to listen to some of his other books, His story improved over this long book.

I felt like Sean had a unique perspective, and I liked how he mentioned other cyclists. Before I finished, I ordered Mark Beaumont’s book.

Compliments Deep Work

Revisado: 03-16-17

After reading Cal Newport's other book, I wondered if I would want to read this book. This book talks about career capital, and it brings a nice counterpoint to the flaws people experience with lifestyle design without providing something of value. At the same time Newport gets Derek Siver's perspective of doing something people are willing to pay for.

There is much more to this book. But it helped me reflect on my own career capital as it relates to maintaining control over how I spend my time.

Great book. I'll likely reread it.

What made the experience of listening to Profit First the most enjoyable?

I had listened to the to Michalowicz's book,The Pumpkin Plan, a couple of time before listening to Profit First. While the Pumpkin Plan deals with selling something unique to great clients in a systematized way, Profit First deals more with personal business management.

The author's website has several resources, such as the "Profit First One-Sheet"". This pdf is like a one page action sheet that summarizes the book's recommendations. Without listening to the book, the Profit First One-Sheet looks pretty dry. After listening to the book, it looks pretty exciting because you can see the possibilities offered by using this structured process.

Michalowicz understands issues that small entrepreneurs/business owners face. I got the sense that I have challenges common to many small businesses. Before finishing the book, I had already implemented processes and strategies that immediately saved me money and are making my business more fun.

What other book might you compare Profit First to and why?

The E-myth Revisited was mentioned in this book, and I feel that the two books complement each other.

Any additional comments?

I don't think this is a book for someone who has a comfortable job that they are happy with. It's really written for entrepreneurs.

Introduced new ideas for me

Revisado: 01-23-15

I had never really considered the idea of mismatched diseases or even that something like poor eyesight could be considered a disease. I learned a lot and have recommended it to friends.
