The Hard Thing About Hard Things

The Hard Thing About Hard Things

The book does not possess textbook studies of business rather it has everything borrowed from the real world. The real world is hard to digest and cope with so the books don’t talk about these things according to Ben Horowitz. The books put the business students in the ideal kind of world while the real world is not a utopia at all. Here you are not only competing with the rivals rather you are also looking for a chance to get rid of them permanently.

This means that you are not thinking in the positive way which the books were telling you when you were taking guidelines from them. Ben also tells how he had to kick several of his friends out of jobs in order to get success. Firing our close friends mean that we are destroying our friendship permanently which is unethical in the moral sense but business does not go that way.

Listening to all of this in Kevin Kenerly’s voice is another good thing that the book is offering to the listeners. So leave the books linked to the business world aside for a while and learn from the best about real business. Ben will tell you how to cash in the opportunities without any kind of delay because second thought is not allowed here. Hard Things was the previous book by the author so this one is in continuity with that one.

The author has talked about real challenges but he has not used a corrosive tone instead he has conveyed the message in easy and soothing words. What You Do Is Who You Are is also an important topic that we must know about if we want to understand the concepts which the author talks about quite often.
