Wow! I'd love to get a copy of this book even though I'm not a big fan of business related book. This book will help me in balancing my personal life and at the same time, achieve the business of my dreams. Great review.

An insightful review. Interesting to find out that the 24/7 approach in this book was the opposite of what I assumed. I am recommending this book to myself as a business development executive. Thank you very much for the insight.

This is a how-to book for starting your own business while still finding time for personal and family life. The idea of working 24/7, 24 hours a week for 7 months out of the year, sounds wonderful. Congratulations to the author for writing this informative book chosen as BOTD. Thanks to the reviewer for your excellent review.

The 24/7 plan is so intriguing! I also enjoyed the woodcutter story in the introduction; it is a thoughtful and relevant way to start the book. I wouldn't consider myself an entrepreneur, but I could still learn a thing or two from reading this. Thanks for the recommendation!

The book sound very inspiring and motivating, but currently, I am not interested in business or entrepreneurship, so I will not read this book.

This boot camp book seems to be just right for someone going into business - especially someone just starting out or struggling with their business. Since I'm retired and never had a business or worked in the business world, I'm going to pass on this one, but the review was very motivating.

This sounds like a book that I should take the time to check out. I'm an aspiring business owner and it sounds like this book is full of useful information that could help at least get me on the right path to take. Thanks for the engaging review.
