Hack the Entrepreneur: How to Stop Procrastinating, Build a Business, and Do Work That Matters

Jonny Nastor offers himself as a coach and mentor for anyone who feels stuck about what to do next in business. The book is aimed at people who want to take charge of their own time and income, find meaningful work, and perhaps build a venture that lets them travel while they earn. It is organized around five stages: getting started, developing the right mindset, generating ideas, learning from mistakes, and growing a business beyond oneself. Nastor addresses the barriers that keep people from beginning, especially procrastination and the fear of failing, and shows how errors can become lessons rather than reasons to quit. Practical and direct, the book is meant to push readers past hesitation toward work they feel proud of.
