10 Powerful Lessons I Gained From The Book ‘Anything You Want’
(Entrepreneurship)
📗Book Review
1. It’s okay to start small
It helps to first start. Many people will worry having large future plans and scale, but starting small is important!
🟢It helps us to focus, be extremely agile and build a strong foundation.
2. Big growth comes from small details
👉It’s often the tiny details that really thrill people enough to make them tell all their friends about you
Find the smallest way to make people smile, they’ll remember you more for that smile than for all your other fancy business-model
3. Advertising and Customer-centricity
✅A business should be customer-centric, with a huge focus on fulfilling the customer needs.
Considering whether to place advertisements on our website simply seems like short-term gains for ourselves.
4. Persistence is important
✅Success comes from persistently improving and inventing, not from persistently doing what’s not working.
5. Ideas are just a multiplier of execution
Ideas are not worth much, everyone has ideas. It is the execution that allows our ideas to grow and develop.
❌A million dollar idea would go nowhere without proper execution.
6. Personal goals and actions
It’s important to know in advance, to make sure you’re staying focused on what’s honestly important to you, instead of doing what others think you should.
🔴How do you grade yourself?
7. Preparation to scale
At a certain point of the business we need to be prepared to scale and grow. And that entails finding new ways to handle new demand.
❌Simply staying with the same strategy but working doubly hard is not the answer.
8. Enjoy the process
When you sign up to run a marathon, you don’t want a taxi to take you to the finish line.
🔴If the purpose of running a business is simply to earn big money, then the business processes and strategies taken might be compromised to reach this goal.
9. Self Employment
There is a significant difference between self-employment and being a business owner, and this got me thinking:
👉Am I a business owner, or am I simply employed to the business 24/7?
10. It’s your business: Do it the way that makes you happy
A business is a reflection of the creator. Whatever you make, it’s your creation,
👉so make it your personal dream come true.
💯Live on auto-pilote!
Crucial for the immediate outcomes and Long-term goals as well!
Necessary for:
- small to large decisions
- the way we manage our time
- the way we manage our career
- the way we live

1. Be more intentional
👉Knowing your “WHY” is necessary to get a better hold of your life in your 20’s
Because many circumstances will lead us to a path we don’t want to be in that if we don’t decide right now to either stop doing it or let it be, it might affect our main goal
2. Create your own life
One of the best things about being on our 20’s is the freedom to create how we want to live our life.
🟢So create in a way how you want it to be, slowly. Our 20’s is the best time to start.
