BEST BOOK EVER - 4 Hour Work Week - Tim Ferris (Expanded and Updated)

I heard it's a good book, I'm planning to buy it.

Well I Read it early 2008. The major concept that I took was being the ghost in the machine. My computer broke Thursday and did not get back on til Sunday. Nothing needed my attention, since I work on project basis, not part of the system. That was a direct learning that I implemented.

Yes great book, made me think bigger :-)

I heard it is a very good book. Not too sure why I never got it. Right now I am reading a book called The Success Principals By Jack canfield. This book is also very amazing. I like it a lot. I totally recommend it to everyone here.

I think you have to be at a certain stage to read this book. If you read it as your first personal development book, you will think he is a jerk and this is not real. If you are a student who understands self growth and then read this, WOW. Thats what happen to me.

As you said...WOW. Truly the book revolutionizes the way you think about why you want to make money...ahhh I can't say enough. Amazing stuff...Do Get The Book.

I am not sure, but that was the only link I had, so if someone wants to do the work, then can.

Tim Ferriss cheated his way to a kickboxing championship
win. He exploited a loophole in the rules. Some would call
it inventive thinking, but I think it's poor sportsmanship.
That makes him look like a jerk to me.

There's some good stuff in the book about protecting your
time, delegating, entrepreneurship. If you want to
do the fitness/supplement biz, get the book, since that's
what he does and the notion that everything he did can
be applied to any business revenue model in not accurate.

Ferriss doesn't advocate slovenliness or not working hard -
he works very hard when launching new projects. The
idea is to work very hard in spurts, but set up the revenue
so it goes on autopilot after you set it up. Then you can
spend the rest of your time doing stuff other than working...
it may improve your ability to be an effective entrepreneur
to have lots of time for other areas of growth - and that's
part of the premise with "4 Hour Workweek".

Another premise is that you can have a really fun (single)
lifestyle if you avoid weighing yourself down with debt and
mortgages and other trappings of "success". Ferris claims
he doesn't own a lot of stuff, because travel and experiences
are more important to him than owning houses, cars, and
jewelry, et al.

With owning a lot of "rich guy" stuff comes a lot of responsibility,
and that's not what Ferris wants.

You have to understand, the guy has no kids and the impression
from the book is that he's a globe-trotting swinging single... so
if you're in a stage in your life where you don't have adult
responsibilities, his model is most applicable.
