You heard this before: “we are the average of the people we spend the most time with”
That’s why I made it a habit for myself to spend time with people whom I admire, and can learn from.
I make them hang out with me every time I pick one of their books. Or the books that are written about them and their work.
I get to hear their stories with details, their findings, their learnings, and their hard-earned wisdom.
Among many, I admire those who invent and build great products that make our life better in some ways.
Those who expand and deepen our understanding of humans and the world we live in.
And those who have been on some special journey; done some unique work and then tried to share their knowledge and learnings with others.
Tony Fadell is one of those people. An outstanding builder, and as this book reveals, a great mentor.
You’ll read his stories about making iPod, iPhone, Nest. You learn the struggles, failures, and lessons learned on:
Building Yourself Building Your Career Building Your Product Building Your Business Building Your Team Becoming & Unbecoming CEO
Every page was filled with wisdom, insight, and actionable advice.
Never read anything like this before.
It took me around 26 hours to read with lots of notes.
Tony Fadell Thank you for your incredible mentorship through this book.
Do.Fail.Learn.
Happy reading! 📙
