The author, Daymond John, shares business insights on life and business he gained through his life and in his business ventures. Daymond also share many lessons he learned from other successful entrepreneurs, one lesson per chapter. There are two main lessons in this book. First, with grit and persistence, everything is possible.

Convenient though it might be to believe that you can shortcut your way to the top, says John, the truth is that if you want to get and stay ahead, you need to put in the work. You need to out-think, out-hustle, and out-perform everyone around you. You’ve got to rise and grind every day.

This book was fantastic, like having informational interviews with the most successful people in the world. I liked the emphasis on different strategies for success, even some that were in direct contradiction with each other, to show that achievement looks different for everyone and there is no one way to be successful. I also appreciated the emphasis on taking care of yourself to position yourself to be successful. Will recommend!
