Perfect for Entrepreneurs

Revisado: 02-28-21

I know this review might seem off topic, but as someone who has spent 8 years in the startup world, the struggles of entrepreneurship are really the struggles of vulnerability. This lecture has perfectly reflected the nuance and reasons for the struggles I’ve seen my colleagues and I go through. It has also helped illustrate how to overcome those struggles.

I hoped for better

Revisado: 11-13-18

I bought this book because of the introduction by Nassim Taleb and could not be more disappointed. While the topics themselves are interesting and the author lived through fascinating times, the writing was so dry and devoid of color and richness that I often found myself bored. He also went into too much detail about the trivial while glossing over the richest opportunities. The narration was awful, with a staccato worse than William Shatner.

Insightful but too academic

Revisado: 06-02-17

The concept of becoming less wrong was an insightful twist that has helped me in my work. Looking at everything I do and use as parts has helped frame my vocabulary and thinking in a new and far more effective way. But the word choice and sentence structure made this incredibly hard to follow. The writing style is very academic and formal, which translated very poorly to an audio book.

Angry and accurate writer

Revisado: 08-05-16

The author has a major chip on his shoulder. Though the material is fascinating, his anger turns the tone so sour that listening to the book became difficult and I had to only listen for thirty minutes at a time. Regarding the substance, brilliant and saddening. His rather accurate explanations are both relieving and saddening.

Interesting but hard to follow

Revisado: 07-31-15

The ideas sound great, and I hope to implement them in my life. But the way he explains his ideas is very hard to follow. I would prefer a more relatable

way of explaining the ideas, meeting me half way with more examples and intellectual explanations. It was all a bit too mystical for me. Which is frustrating, because the ideas sound powerful and helpful.

Great insights

Revisado: 04-30-15

Awesome to see how one of the wealthiest and most successful entrepreneurs and investors thinks. Five more unhelpful review words.

Changed my life

Revisado: 03-15-15

I recognized so much of what Robert talks about in my own life. I've been actively making changes based on his recommendations and the results have been super helpful. I highly recommend this book!

Thoughtful and densely written. A must read.

Revisado: 03-01-15

I needed to listen to this three times to fully grasp the content due to how densely written it is. The content itself was extremely helpful for understanding different phenomena I've seen in business.
