About this listen

The book covers numerous tech entrepreneurial founders and software developers, and the exciting brands or products that they created. It goes deep on a handful of them, narrowly divulging exactly how a few software developers and startup founders created breakthrough tech products like Gmail, Dropbox, Ring, Snapchat, Bitcoin, Groupon, and more. It highlights and unpacks the general hero-worship that the media and our own minds practice about tech founders and tech entrepreneurs. This idealization of tech success can create a paradox, preventing average tech professionals from their own successful journeys. This book provides hard evidence that anyone in tech can create, and anyone on the peripheral of tech can break through to the center where innovation, creativity, and opportunity meet.

The anecdotes, stories, evidence, facts, arguments, logic, principles, and techniques provided in this book have helped individuals and businesses engage in slow creation cycles, improve the morale of their development teams, and increased their delivery potential of their technology solutions overall.

Wonderful book

Very useful book..
It took quarter of a century to accumulate information and write the book, such a persistent and consistent effort. The author had written a great book of life with full of lessons.
 
good for maintaining a calm mental health and it contains so many inspirational incidents where the power of subconscious mind changed the life of so many persons..
Guys, if you are a dreamer and you want to be successful in your life, I know you always need a push or motivation to continue on that path with the same dedication,
strength and not giving up attitude, this book can help you a lot because it has great examples, motivational stories, principles/secrets to success and also many practical 
ideas which if followed properly, you can do wonders.
 
As someone say a book won't work unless you do, if you want this book to help you, then you have to apply all those principles.
 
must read book...highly recommended to build a good future...

"Average Joe" Be the Silicon Valley Tech Genius

Absolutely amazing book.The author had made clearly understandings about what it takes to be successful in the start-up tech world and turns them completely upside down. There is perfect balance between historical examples of innovations and detailed diagrams to explain individual human creativity. Highly recommend!!!!
