Anything You Want

40 Lessons for a New Kind of Entrepreneur

Derek Sivers · 2015

In this short, punchy book, Derek Sivers distills the lessons from building and selling CD Baby, the music company he started almost by accident. Across forty brief chapters he shares hard-won, often counterintuitive ideas about business: serve customers obsessively, ignore conventional growth advice, and build the company you actually want to run. Honest about his own missteps, Sivers offers a refreshingly human, values-first take on entrepreneurship. A quick read packed with memorable, quotable wisdom.

This is one of the three books that most changed my life (the others being The 4-Hour Work Week and Anything You Want: 40 Lessons for a New Kind of Entrepreneur ).
