Required Reading - The 4-Hour Work Week

This is a book about things like outsourcing, management and life-style design. It takes you on a trip in an amazing world where any person can build his/hers own multi-national business and where, since fewer go for it, making a billion is not harder than making a million. Very informative, and also entertaining, it shows you how to have your virtual assistant in India take care of your infected communication with your spouse, how to become an authority expert in any area in a matter of weeks and how to make your company get a life of its own, leaving you only the job of cashing checks.

So powerful is this book, that when realizing its impact, I put the reading on hold, just to read in it a few months later that this kind of bahaviour (avoiding painful facts) is the very problem that makes us stay busy to avoid decision-making and actions with uncertain outcome.
