Business Basics Bootcamp is not your ordinary 'how to get rich quick' kind of book. This is a detailed and deeply researched novel by Mitche Graf that goes into great detail on what it takes to not only start and/or run a successful business, but also how to co currently enjoy family life and get enough time to spend with them.

Mitche has divided the book into sections that he vividly explains. He begins off with the chapter 'Lifestyle design'. In this chapter, he has included a list of questions that the reader ought to ask themselves in order to determine whether he or she is indeed cut out for the world of business. He deals with all the issues that may prevent one from starting and running the business of choice.

Mitche did not come from a successful or rich family. His family was not the perfect one that you would imagine. His parents were divorced and his mum remarried. However, instead of seeing all his troubles as challenges and motivation killers, Mitche chose to make them his stepping stones to the successful person he believes he is; and that anyone else can be.

The eight chapters that make the book are definitely worth your time. What I liked most about the book was the 24/7 working plan. And no, it is not 24 hours a day and 7 days a week, on the contrary, it is 24 hours a week and 7 months in an year. Now imagine how much time one would have if they had the rest of the year to catch up with personal life! That is both fulfilling and a blessing if you ask me. Now to know what that means in depth, pick up the book!

Mitche communicates very easily. He incorporates a fun way of saying stuff in a manner that is full of life and excitement. Along the way I could hear his voice in my head even though I have never heard him speak before. I felt as though we were talking face to face. He allows the descriptions of the necessities in success sound so practical. This is definately a book that I feel if carefully applied will catapult you to greater heights.

Based on all that, I rate the book a strong 4 out of 4 stars. This book is both challenging and applicable in all manner. I recommend the book to anyone who loves reading. Once you start reading and answer the questions of whether you are a successful entrepreneur in waiting or not, then you can make your decision whether it is worth you reading the whole book. I loved it that much. The book was exceptionally edited with only two notable errors. Great book!

I like that the book gives some questions and guidance for the readers to find out if they want to be business men and women. Often that first question is forgotten.

This book sounds great, not only for entrepreneurs but for everyone. It seems very inspirational and motivational. A book for those who seek for lifestyle improvements seems nice. I think I'm going to sample it to see what it is like. Thanks for the great review!

Caught me by surprise with the 24 hours a week rule! Sounds similar to The Four Hour Workweek but with a four-hour workday. I definitely need to get more productive this summer. Perhaps I'll check this one out!
