Default The 4-Hour Workweek

Has anyone read The 4-Hour Workweek?


I'm half through it, it's a great book. Figuring among amazon's bestsellers, it has many tips on productivity and offers a complete change of mindset, although many here already have some sort of mindset like the one portrayed in the book.

good book, take from it what would/could work in your life based on what your goals/ambitions are... the initial mindset shift is great but I found that if I didn't apply the learning it went into never never land... use what sounds good to you and apply it straight away!

There's a long thread on this book somewhere. I think it's in the "business and financial" section. but if not just try doing a search for it.

I personally highly recommend this book. it helped me learn the value of my time and the need in business to seperate time from money. there's also loads of quick tips for improving your productivity !

What i loved about this book is how it teaches to think outside the box. It certainly has some fairy tales but nevertheless, makes you have another perspective of a lot of things, although, as i just said, much of what's in it is too far fetched, the way i see it.
