Synopsis

Don Hyun Kiolbassa is no stranger to side hustles. In addition to owning his own law firm, he is a CPA, martial artist, dynamic speaker and performer, and the motion capture model for some of the biggest action video games in the industry.

When he was at his lowest professionally and financially, he had an epiphany that helped him grow a side hustle into a full-time business: the principles of Wushu Kung Fu apply to business just as they do to fighting. He turned to the fundamental principles of strategy learned in a lifetime of Martial Arts, including his time living as a Monk at the Shaolin Temple in China.

In The Tao of the Side Hustle, Don shares this martial arts wisdom, blends Buddhist Martial Arts stories with strategic business, tax and legal principles, and explains how anyone interested in a side hustle or small business can follow in his footsteps. Learn how to: identify a side hustle suited to your skills and passions; join forces with family, friends, colleagues, and mentors to help launch successfully; deal with failure, rejection, and doubt; manage your time; decide if your side hustle should become your full-time income source; grow your side hustle into a full-fledged business; and scale your business by establishing your mission, hiring, managing, and building a culture.

Goodreads review by Caitlin on February 12, 2024

I found this book from the author posting a tiktok about it being on the shelf. It’s a mix of Dave Ramsey, 996 work culture, and then advice about how to treat others and the importance of DEIBA. Have you ever seen the trifle Rachel makes in the tv show Friends? Lots of great foods that maybe didn’t......more
