the art of the start | can't start a fire without a spark - just ask Guy Kawasaki - Page 5

So, hear ye, all of you rebels out there, all of you who were told "it's not possible" and have sat at frustratingly dull and soul-deadening jobs for years on end when you knew all along that if you had been given the chance, you could have, or would have at least tried, to do something really revolutionary, then read Guy Kawasaki because he does indeed offer what he promises, which is hope to the hopeful.

There's a lot here for everyone, and I would even say that to venture forth if you are starting a business now and purposefully not read this book would be perhaps a fatal mistake. I think even for the seasoned business person, there is a great deal to be learned from Kawasaki, and if you're anything like I am, take copious notes, underline and outline and take what you need, but what I can say is that it is all there for the offering in this book, and that more, it is written with verve, spirit and great courage and insight.

I can't wait to read Kawasaki's other books, especially Rules for Revolutionaries. I think this man and I have a great deal in common. I think anyone who has ever had to deal with office politics and been stuck in a cubicle and all the while knowing that they had an idea that would be not only great for them, but could perhaps do something truly great for the company and take it to a whole other level, will really admire Kawasaki's ideas, energy, and forthrightness. Who wouldn't want to be chosen as a one of his revolutionaries and be sent off-site to a think tank where you could just create for the sake of making meaning as he says, chanting your mantra all the while and just believing against all odds because deep down, you know this is good and right.
