Don't rush the exercises, enjoy in small doses

This is an excellent book which includes many, many details and suggested exercises. My suggestion is to read the book all the way through once, then start working on the exercises, slowly, otherwise it can be a bit too much to really get a handle on. Awesome, so worth the money spent to purchase it.


Great read, But Vaguely Suspect

Great read, inspirational.

But in a sea of to-do's--many reasonable and beneficial tweaks in lifestyle and thought--I found myself feeling like I was trying to be "sold" something.

So in brainstorming/researching my "muse"--we all found ours because it's that easy, right guys?--I came to the conclusion I'd need to find a drop-shipping service as to remotely conduct my business.

Mr. Ferriss offers several recommendations in sourcing one's muse (e-business for those who haven't read this). "Finding Manufacturing or Products to Resell", which an everyday reader may be most partial to because it requires the least effort and you never see the goodies, lists several websites as resources.

Under this heading, Thomasnet is listed and seems interesting as a good start. Following that is dropshipsource (Worldwide Brands?), which seems vaguely fishy and charges approximately $500 for a lifetime membership--whatever that means. Who owns these websites? I used to do reporting and immediately feel suspicious when I just spent 19.99 on the book and am already getting more sales pitches.

But as this is the reviews section, I must be fair in my evaluation of the book overall: The 4-Hour Workweek: Escape 9-5, Live Anywhere, and Join the New Rich is worth reading as a motivator. No one deserves to spend their life in a cubicle (yep, I'm still in mine). I also like how Mr. Ferriss stresses that one's time and energy are sacred, and to be treated as such.

Thanks for reading!

You Can Have Your Cake And Eat It Too

Hi Everyone,

Yes, the book is not perfect, it has flaws. But as a role model Timothy shows us that positive aggression, awareness and assertiveness can get us our needs met.

The main needs this book addresses is being liberated from a desk job so you can travel if you want, and being liberating from working like a slave. I have already been on a track of working for myself but this book was still helpful. I learned some good marketing techniques, and got to see insight on how to get a small online business up and running. I wouldn't hang on too tightly to the examples given of online businesses the concept of creating income creatively is what is more important.

Timothy is open to many possibilities for success and he teaches readers that you can live life according to a new set of rules. Why sit around and have a boring, unfulfilling life and waste time working. Rather, work effectively, take control, and live your dreams. What is great about this message is that Timothy shows us a method for doing this. Find a way to make money that doesn't require you. Be the boss. Probably the best tip from the book is to not waste time. Timothy emphasizes spending our time on where we are most effective, and not wasting our time wandering through life without intention.

I think this is a great book that will help many people switch to more pleasurable careers.

Great Book!

This is a very great book for those that are trying to find freedom and a lifestyle, that normally would have to wait until you retire.
