The Entrepreneur Roller Coaster: It's Your Turn to #JoinTheRide

This book has changed the game for putting me back in time when I first started my business, but it also has helped me now even though I’ve been in business for almost 9 years. Highly recommend it! Darren Hardy is such a great author and his books are simple to read and understand

Darren Hardy has done a masterful job in presenting the key the concepts it takes to succeed as an entrepreneur. I found this book to be entertaining and insightful. I enjoyed the autobiographical nature of this book because at adds credibility to his message. From Darren earning $150,000 in a year..when he was all of 18 years young to some of the poor hiring decisions he has made throughout his career, he lays it all out on the table for the reader!I also appreciated the insights he gleaned from the many super successful businessman he's interviewed. I thought those excerpts further reinforced his message. You will recognize some of those names immediately but others aren't as well known. Some of the most compelling quotes came from those successful business people who aren't readily recognizable by the general public.One key concept that I'm glad he brought up was the idea of practice. For those of you who have read Outliers, that's not a new concept. However, Darren brought up the concept of practice in a dialogue he had with someone who set a goal of reading 32 books. On the surface that sounds like a great goal but Darren gave the person some great advice when he recommended that she instead read 1 GREAT book 32 times. I've found that 95% of the people who attend seminars and read the books stay stuck because they have a low willingness to accept change. They are ready and willing to learn something new but do a poor job in applying the content. They spend years on the "Seminar Circuit" and accomplish very little in real life.Additionally, Darren provides the reader with resources to get them to really think about their true passions and strengths. "Thinking is the hardest work their is" as Henry Ford once said, and that's why few people do it.Furthermore, I found the discussion on leadership to be quite helpful particularly with the changing demographics of the workforce. All in all, I would highly recommend this book anyone who is about to take the plunge into entrepreneurship, for existing entrepreneurs who are struggling, and for successful entrepreneurs who may have unconsciously developed some bad habits that could derail their business.Fasten Your Seatbelts!

I loved this book so much I read it twice.

if you're even looking at the reviews on this book then you should just go ahead and buy it.there is a lot of really quality material in this one, it's well written and flew by.

This book prepares you for the highs and lows of entrepreneurship, warning you about the fears, doubts, and negative conditioning you might face. It also helps protect you from naysayers and the pain of rejection and failure. I personally found some parts a bit repetitive, and for me, it felt slightly overrated ..but, it's perfect for anyone just starting out.

It seems silly to write a review about a book that I just purchased and am only in the middle of Chapter two of. So why write one? Because if I stopped reading right this minute and never read any more of this book, it would have been worth the money to buy it and the effort to read this far.As an entrepreneur myself, I can relate to all I've read this far. I applaud Darren Hardy for having the passion, and taking the time and energy that it took to write this masterpiece. I can't wait to read more, yet already, I would love to share this book with the entire world.I also have to say that I absolutely love how he writes. It is funny, thorough, insightful, enthusiastic, passionate, and straight forward all at the same time. He writes from his own experiences, and that of being the publisher of Success Magazine and having interviewed a cadre of successful entrepreneurs in a wide variety of fields.And, this book is not just a book. It is a an adventure. It is a road map, It is a resource. It is a master plan. It is a mentor. This is a complete package, well researched and compiled, with all manner of helps and loads of encouragement.If you've ever thought even just a little about being in business for yourself, this book will be well worth your investment in time and money.

This book gave me some extra motivation to want to be a better business owner! Loved this book!
