Ready to check out of corporate life? Check out this book!

As a person who is mentally done with working for other people and on other people's timelines, I find this book very inspirational and helpful. While obviously not every idea in this book will work for you, several of them should get your mind open at least a crack as to how creatively you can manipulate your own talents and interests into ways to earn money independently of someone else. However, the book is merely a starting point. Mr. Levinson provides ideas for work, basic ways to market your offerings, and some potential pitfalls just to keep you in reality. The rest of the details will have to come from yourself. So if you are looking for a comprehensive guide to starting your own business,the hows and the wherefores, this isn't it. But it's a great tool for lifting your mind out of the corporate gutter and realizing there are may other opportunities out there for you as long as you have enough spirit, determination and belief in your own sense of entrepreneurship.

Motivational Rather Than Practical

I have read two or three of Levinson's books and they got me through a period when I was self employed. However, as good and useful as the ideas are, not enough is mentioned about having to do the actual work. It's easy (for me at least, and obviously for Levinson) to think up good ideas but one has to actually do the work and many ideas sound good and like they should work but when you get to working, the work to payoff ratio isn't enough or there are serious mental blocks to doing the volume of work necessary. Sure, write a book and get royalties forever sounds wonderful but how many people actually write that book, market it aggressively, etc.?
