Raves and Reviews

Full of stirring wisdom that's particuarly relevant to entrepreneurs but also to anyone chasing success

– Publisher's Weekly

A fast read—and an inspirational one: Australian serial entrepreneur and author (Happiness Is, 2009) Messenger tells it like it is, offering a path to success that involves not only hard work but also guts and no small amount of determination. And she inspires by simply telling her own story, following a bare-bones outline of 10 actions. From “believe in yourself” (sound familiar?) to “do good,” Messenger peppers every overpromoted cliché with real stories. Like the time she dreamed about starting a publishing empire while atop a Marrakesh roof. Or how she overcame the fear of public speaking. Even her brand tips—connections are king; secure all your names as fast as you can—have relevance in today’s insanely busy work world. And it all ends with this: “Make money so you can make a difference.” Simple advice, well-put.
