Once, Steve Jobs gave the advice: "Leave a dent in the universe." Guy Kawasaki is the person who not only left a dent but pierced the universe through and through. Jobs was not impressed by his application during the hiring process; nonetheless, Kawasaki achieved outstanding results at Apple, making the whole world fanatical about their products. This book is not an autobiography; rather it is a collection of educational stories that impart knowledge. It contains 183 wise pieces of advice from a Silicon Valley icon, many of which are priceless, and some worth over 2.5 billion dollars.
The book explains how to:
• build a strategy for your life and career;
• inspire and motivate yourself and those around you;
• extract benefits from negative events;
• expand useful connections;
• conduct presentations effectively...
And much more.
Guy Kawasaki is the father of marketing evangelism, the chief evangelist of Canva, and previously of Apple, a venture capitalist. He was a brand ambassador for Mercedes-Benz. He has written 15 books, many of which have become bestsellers.
"A person finds themselves by looking at another person. I was very interested to see Guy Kawasaki's experience from the perspective of life wisdom—how he reflects and analyzes his past. In this book, he shares how to draw the right conclusions from lived experiences that will aid in personal development and the formation of life principles to live a whole life." — Maxim Batyrev, founder of Batyrev Consulting Group, author of the bestsellers "45 Tattoos of a Manager," "45 Tattoos of a Seller," and "45 Tattoos of a Personality."
