Synopsis

Why work for someone else when you can call your own shots, pursue your dreams, and find success on your terms by starting your own business? So many people end up bored with their jobs, stuck in the corporate grind, never pursuing their true passions.

As wildly successful young entrepreneur Cameron Johnson shows, you don't have to live that way. We've entered a new age of entrepreneurship, with the Web making it easier than ever to start and run your own company. As Johnson's own remarkable story reveals, the entrepreneurial way of life is a great way to make sure you love what you do-and to achieve extraordinary success by following your gut and going for what you really want

A book full of wisdom and I definitely recommend it. I don't regret for a second having read it and I am actually getting ready to reread it for at least two more times.
