[GET] Stop With The BS - Shane Mac [mobi, pdf]
Stop With The BS
This book is different. That's the only pre-requisite I had before writing it; it couldn't just be "another book." So, I made it a journey and something crazy. I forced myself to write the entire book on one train ride. 275 pages, 30,000+ words, on a train ride from Seattle to San Francisco and back. Every chapter includes a photo taken out the window, the song playing in my headphones and random crazy thoughts about what was going on in my head while writing this. You are along for the ride. This book is about the journey as much as it is about the content. This book is for anyone who wants a new career. If you love your career, get this for a friend who doesn't. It's a collection of stories and thoughts inspired by 20 years of notes I had kept. I have no idea if this book will actually be something people want to read but these simple reviews from my friends growing up and people I've never met made me think that maybe someone might. What results is a collection of 75 funny, real, raw thoughts and occasional rants about starting a career, doing work that matters, making a difference, and why having a carefully-crafted resume is the last thing you need to make shit happen in today's world. Raw, funny, vulnerable and to-the-point, each essay cuts down on the layers of crap we hear daily to tell the real story--about how to make it happen. "This book is a compilation of small, tactical strategies and advice that will make you think differently about the way business and careers work. You only have so much time to do what you want to get done, so make sure to focus on what is most important to you." -- Tony Hsieh, NY Times bestselling author of "Delivering Happiness" and CEO of Zappos.com, Inc. "Shane has some stuff figured out that lots of people never get. What he wrote on this train ride, you'll be thinking about for much longer." -- Julien Smith, NYT Best-selling Author of Trust Agents "This book is a swift kick in the ass. It makes you want to get up and go make things happen. Do yourself a favor and grab a copy of this book today." -- Neil Patel, Co-founder of 2 Internet Companies: Crazy Egg and KISSmetrics. ""This book is something that everyone needs to read the day they graduate college. Anyone looking for a career change or who needs a quick dose of inspiration and motivation. The way the book is written, on a train, in real-time makes you feel like you're right there along for the ride." -- Scott Gerber, Founder YEC and Best-selling Author, Never Get a "Real" Job "The point is that how you said what you said, made me stop reading and actually "do" what you said to do. This book is incredible, at least I think it is, how you were able to put so much passion and thought into this. Every story you told, every person you met, basically every experience you had felt like I was right there experiencing it with you. Your book may be the foundation to my new outlook on life. I thank you for that." -- Robbie Terlesky, a Best Friend Password requests will be ignored. Been answered a thousand times already. Search the forum or read the TOP of the freebie section.
