So here’s me cracking open this book to see how I can improve my business development skills, only to stop short at the following passage: “College…seduces us with the notion that real life will be an oasis where sheer talent is what counts….Life is like high school.”
This does not come as great news to someone whose grand slams in life came after his high school years.
Luckily, Harry Beckwith—local author and consultant—explains why this is true, in a book composed of short and quickly digestible chapters aimed at helping those of us who missed the memo about life skills. Much of his advice is predictable and in fact pretty basic (especially for a successful entrepreneur), but where Beckwith shines is linking the ideas together and presenting the ideas in very accessible form.
