Howdy Y’all!
Welcome to the 7th edition of The Flyby Book.
Can you believe this book club is seven months old already!?
#TimeFlies.
Have you been reading along and noticed an improvement in your understanding of business (and the world)?
I sure have. A lot of it might be subtle, but it all adds up.
Last month’s pick was about rapidly iterating on a product using the lean startup methodology. Check out my 15-minute-long review here if you haven’t already. I may or may not have gone into a tangent about scratching your own itch. Like I said, for me, it’s the only way to fly.
This month’s book is a classic. I’ve read it twice already and keep coming back to it from time to time. It formed the basis of a lot of my thinking about entrepreneurship and business. But it requires reading between the lines a lot. The audiobook is supposed to be great too, so I might give it a try this time.
I’ve heard it recommended by several great entrepreneurs as well. In the spirit of launching Flyby Biographies (more info coming soon; stay tuned), I thought I’d pick an autobiography for this month.
It’s one written by a self-made British entrepreneur worth a few hundred million dollars, revealing everything he had learned towards the end of his life. It’s primarily entrepreneurship focused, but contains some solid life lessons as well. It is as much about “what not to do” as it is about “what to do.”
This month’s pick is for Paid Subscribers Only. So upgrade now if you want to see the pick and read my review later in the month.
The seventh book is …
