Ever Considered Becoming an Entrepreneur?

If you've ever considered becoming an entrepreneur (or had looming doubts about the subject) I suggest that you read a book I'm reading now. It's called "It Sure Beats Working: 29 Quirky Stories and Practical Business Lessons for The First-Time, Mid-Life, Solo Professional." by Michael Katz.


Why do I recommend this book? As an entrepreneur myself I can tell you that it's not easy making a living doing what you love. And there are always obstacles that make you second guess what you are doing. I mean, isn't easier just to take a job working 8-5 every day, where you sit in your cube or talk to people over the phone, all the while touting the company mission statement?! While this is ok for some, it's not the answer that those who possess the entrepreneurial spirit pine for. We want freedom to create and autonomy to roam. 


Another thing that I like about this book (aside from it being short) is that it's free and it's funny. You can't beat free in the recession we find ourselves in these days and we all need a laugh. So how do you get this book? 

You can get a hard copy of this book on Amazon (not free):

Or, you can download his astonishingly well-written, 119-page book, for FREE: "It Sure Beats Working: 29 Quirky Stories and Practical Business Lessons for the First-Time, Mid-Life, Solo Professional"
