Rework

OK I admit that talking about book could miss the point of a fun reading experience.But anyway, I really want to talk about this one. And another one, the last I promise, but it'll the story of the next entries.

Well today the book's name is Rework and is written by Jason Fried & David Heinemeier Hansson.

Reading Rework was like taking a strong shot of adrenalin : my eyes open wide and my brain melts.
Each chapter and each advice was an opportunity to learn, analyze and change the way I was thinking about work and business.

Rework is about successful business people breaking down brick by brick the old wall of business beliefs.
This book empowered me. Not like I get superpower only by reading a book, but more like something that give me a boost in confidence and an awarness for new opportunities.

Let's take three punchlines from the book for example :

• Ignore the real world : As they explain it, don't listen to people saying "Your idea will not work in the real world.". In fact this "real world" is just an excuse. An excuse that help this people avoiding to take risk or initiative and even worse breaking your motivation. Well everything is possible and there is far too much success stories to be told for someone to try to hide this real, real world :)
• Make a dent in the Universe! : When creating a business or choosing a job, do something that matter for you and for the others. First for you because it's the best way to do it well and then for the others because you want customers.
• Inspiration is perishable : An obvious but too regularly forgotten advice. When you're inspired, whenever it is, catch your inspiration and work on it NOW! Or you will forget it, oh yes you will. With inspiration you can make the work of a week in half a day. So don't postpone your meeting with inspiration. I'm sure you had already experience that, hadn't you?

Of course there are many others useful and ready to use advices like them in this book.

As I said at the beginning, more than advices, Rework is also packed with a great bunch of motivation and freedom, so don't miss it.

I hope you'll enjoy reading it and share your opinion with me.
