Are you tired of just paying bills until you die? Are you wasting your life at a job that doesn't make you fulfilled or financially secure? Then Future Proofing You: Twelve Truths for Creating Opportunity, Maximizing Wealth, and Controlling Your Destiny in an Uncertain World is for you.
In this life-changing book, celebrated author and entrepreneur Jay Samit, who's worked with such visionaries as Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Reid Hoffman, and hundreds of successful entrepreneurs, shares the key understandings and step-by-step process for becoming rich and never needing another job again. To prove the power of his 12 Truths, Samit also details the journey of how he mentored a broke millennial with these principles and empowered him to go from being on welfare to becoming a self-made millionaire in one year.
Building upon the principles in his internationally acclaimed book Disrupt You, Samit explains:
* How to identify an idea and market to start your business
* How to build a virtual company with little or no capital
* The latest free software tools for managing your business
* Ways to get a piece of a trillion-dollar opportunity bigger than mobile
* How to harness the three primary fears of others to generate more sales
* Strategies for finding the right mentors to accelerate your success
* Techniques to structure any deal for creating recurring revenue and lasting wealth
This book is perfect for anyone who is tired of jobs with no security, hopes to truly realize their professional and personal potential, and is looking for a way to build a better life for them and their family. Future Proofing You also belongs on the bookshelves of entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs everywhere who hope to inspire their teams to become something greater than what they already are.
