for business owners.. good read

[Ajcoholic]

I just finished Paul Downs' book "Boss Life" - a very interesting - and at times discouraging/inspiring/sobering/etc read if you run your own business.

As a business owner I can definitely relate (although on a smaller scale) and I think I might just have learned something too.

Anyone else read this book? What did you think? Im going to get my guys to read it - and they might understand some of the trials that the business owner has to deal with day to day.

thanks for suggestion, just ordered it. Will give you feedback when I read it. Hopefully chapter 1 is titled "How to find time as a business owner to read this book"

Thanks.... ordered it. I am sure it is worth the read if only to get another person's perspective.... right?

As a serial small-business-starter I am sure it will be something that gives me more insight...

It's not an instructional book. Not the point. It is a very insightful read on one guys day to day struggles with trying to keep everything running and the doors open.

Just the kind of reading and learning I love.

Andrew it must be good for you to recommend it so I ordered it. All business owners struggle at different times, either by one own fault or by out side sources. I know with the new building I have had many nights of sleeplessness, wondering if I am making the right choices, wandering if anyone will use the new class rooms etc.
so it will be nice to read about another persons insight on struggling with his business.

Ordered it last week, got it but haven't read it yet. Loved reading some of his blogs. Google his name to find them as I don't remember where I first heard of him about 2 weeks ago.
