Resumen del Editor
A survival manual for ambitious ADVENTURERS
You have a Hydra: a grand, ambitious project you’ve always wanted to tackle. It feels overwhelming, unconquerable. Chop off one of a Hydra’s heads, and two more grow in its place.
How will you ever defeat such a terrifying monstrosity - and live to tell the tale?
In this illuminating fable, productivity expert Josh Kaufman explores the uncertainty and fear inherent in facing down any ambitious challenge, from starting a new business to completing a work of art.
The risks involved can never be eliminated, but they can be understood, anticipated, and mitigated. Armed with an adventurer's insights into tackling unknown and fearsome challenges, you can tame a project of epic proportions.
How to Fight a Hydra is an essential handbook for artists, creative professionals, and entrepreneurs tired of ignoring the call to adventure.
So prepare for battle, brave soul. Draw your sword. Light your torch.
In the darkness ahead, your Hydra awaits.
Reseñas de la Crítica
"Originally I expected the title to be just a metaphor - I was delighted to learn that the book is, in fact, a short guide to fighting a Hydra. Using metaphor makes it much easier to have a clear view of reality. The way Josh tells the story is great: it starts with a picture of a world not quite like your own - but very much parallel - and then slowly the two worlds merge. By the time you put the book down, a feeling of possibility is unavoidable." (Joey Cofone, CEO of Baron Fig)
"From start to finish, How to Fight A Hydra felt like my brain on loudspeaker. This book is a map for venturing, risking, and living how I know I must. It's not easy, but I'll take the risk. The reward is finding out WHO I AM. I just took one of the biggest risks I've ever taken in my work; this book came at the perfect time. I'm ready to quest: to find the Hydra and defeat anything that gets in the way... even if it's me." (Ishita Gupta)
"As I read How to Fight a Hydra, I immediately thought of my journey as an entrepreneur. There were so many moments that mirrored the adventure of building my own business. This book is like The War of Art and Rules for a Knight tossed into a blender and combined to create a beautiful and insightful story about the quest any adventurer faces." (James Clear, author of Atomic Habits and writer)

Historia
Life’s tough when you’re trapped in an eight-year-old body on another world. His name is Eight. Not really, but that’s what the System decided after a slip of the tongue. One moment, he was stepping out the office door on the way home, and the next waking up on a hillside below a town wall. Oh, and the gate guard drove him off, because he thought Eight was a monster. What’s a boy to do in a world full of magic and so many, many hungry creatures searching for their next meal? Well, there’s an old man inside that body, and he'll use everything he’s learned to survive.

Some made it through by using force, some by using their cunning.... Everyone has their own story, but they all have one thing in common - there are no good people among them.

If you have not encountered Chuang Tzu before, prepare yourself for a treat. He was the sage who stood apart from all others in Chinese history. He was a unique presence, a great mind like no one before or since. Chuang Tzu quickly distinguished himself and became well known for his deep understanding and sense of humor. His mastery was such that he could explain the Tao with simple stories, and his humor was such that he could see the joy in ordinary things.

Build your own castle, tame a dragon, conquer a kingdom! All those desperate, lonely, and insecure - Mirror World offers you a chance!" But Oleg isn't meant to become a great wizard or a famous warrior. He'll never have a castle of his own. Nor will he ever tame a dragon. And he's definitely not the type to conquer a kingdom, however virtual it may be.

Long ago the gods chose a great hero to act as their agent in the mortal world and to stand against the demonic spawn of Chaos. The gods gifted their champion, Daemron, with three magical Talismans: a sword, a ring, and a crown. But the awesome power at his command corrupted Daemron, turning him from savior to destroyer. Filled with pride, he dared to challenge the gods themselves. Siding with the Chaos spawn, Daemron waged a titanic battle against the Immortals. In the end, Daemron was defeated, the Talismans were lost, and Chaos was sealed off behind the Legacy - a magical barrier the gods sacrificed themselves to create.

How can we learn to deal with uncertainty at work? The answer is to learn from the adaptive behaviors of entrepreneurs. Play, the authors show, is a crucial component of this. It encourages exploration, experimentation, and curiosity, while it also challenges established practices and orthodoxies. It facilitates change in people and organizations. Drawing on in-depth interviews with entrepreneurs and innovators, this audiobook explains why we should incorporate play into work, what play looks like, and how to encourage playfulness in individuals and organizations.

Interacting with people at work can be one of life’s greatest joys—and greatest frustrations. Some coworkers never trust us to do our jobs, or never respond to requests for information, or waste our time with dozens of unnecessary emails. The cost: our work results and personal sanity. How can you approach workplace interactions with more empathy and less resentment? How can you become more successful when working with “annoying” or “difficult” coworkers?

Drawing on in-depth interviews with entrepreneurs and innovators, this audiobook explains why we should incorporate play into work, what play looks like, and how to encourage playfulness in individuals and organizations.

Historia
Interacting with people at work can be one of life’s greatest joys—and greatest frustrations. Some coworkers never trust us to do our jobs, or never respond to requests for information, or waste our time with dozens of unnecessary emails. The cost: our work results and personal sanity. How can you approach workplace interactions with more empathy and less resentment? How can you become more successful when working with “annoying” or “difficult” coworkers?

Historia
La Hidra no solo es un animal mitológico. Una Hidra, según esta iluminadora historia, es la representación del miedo y la incertidumbre que asaltan a todo aquel que inicia una empresa de gran envergadura, como poner un negocio propio o crear una obra de arte. Entonces, ¿cómo enfrentar un animal tan terrible al que al cortarle una cabeza le crecen dos más? Como bien indica el experto en productividad Josh Kaufman, los riesgos involucrados nunca pueden eliminarse del todo, pero pueden entenderse, anticiparse y mitigarse.

The latest groundbreaking tome from Tim Ferriss, the number-one New York Times best-selling author of The 4-Hour Workweek. For the last two years, I've interviewed more than 200 world-class performers for my podcast, The Tim Ferriss Show. The guests range from super celebs (Jamie Foxx, Arnold Schwarzenegger, etc.) and athletes (icons of powerlifting, gymnastics, surfing, etc.) to legendary Special Operations commanders and black-market biochemists. For most of my guests, it’s the first time they’ve agreed to a two-to-three-hour interview.

Always on my phone
I don't leave many reviews, but this book deserves that time and extra attention. No matter the situation, whether it is business, pleasure, personal, professional, spiritual, mundane, anything that can or does contain steps into the unknown to achieve and which generates uncertainty and/or anxiety, fear, doubt.... this is the book to listen to. It is short, it is a fun listen, and despite the fun aspect, each aspect is clearly relevant and relatable to whatever your project or goal.
It resides on my phone and has done so since the day I purchased it. When I upgraded my phone, it was almost immediately downloaded. (Had to wait for another WiFi access point.) I have listened to it many times, and at some point will purchase the print volume as well. You don't need to be a fan of fantasy or role play or anything of the like to benefit from this book and the concise lessons it contains. Think of it as an epic story told around the evening campfire or at bedtime if you prefer.
I cannot recommend this book highly enough. The narration (by the author) is excellent, and the outstanding sound effects and background music lend a depth of realism and presence to the tale without distracting from the telling of it. It is engrossing and educational, in the tradition of the best storytelling across the ages. I would give it a hundred stars if I could.

It makes ideas bite sized
I like.the metaphor of adventuring as it connects to me personally. It uses simple story telling and framing it as experience to frame complex truths that can't normally be expressed well.

Worth it!
I regularly read or listen to business and entrepreneurship content and have many books from this genre in my collection, but I have not re-read any of them as much as this one. It's honestly a great allegorical book on entrepreneurship. It's a great source of inspiration and is a length that makes it good for repeated listening whenever needed. It has, over numerous listenings, become my favourite and go-to listen when needing perspective or inspiration in entrepreneurial efforts. I highly recommend it.

While the moral of the story was pleasurable..
The subsequent acknowledgments, handwringing and self promotion make it less pleasurable. Listen to the first half.

Decent Listen, Not Superb.
How to Fight a Hydra is a decent, quick listen. While I understand the overall concepts and underlying themes, I believe Kaufman's lane is within writing about business. He should stick to that genre, in my opinion, just my two cents.

Motivational, and perfect for regular relistening
A short perfect read about struggling, fighting, losing, and winning. A core motivational reminder worth having to relisten to when you are struggling to stay on your feet.

Not Great, But Not Bad Either.
If you've read the Personal MBA or The First 20 Hours, pass on this book, you'll be disappointed. The book is about getting started with courage in spite of all the obstacles and odds against you in a Joseph Campbell esque manner. I do read/listen to this if I need the catalyst to get started, but nothing innovative like his last two works. If you're bored, it is an interesting read if you want different perspective in a business/project management point of view.

Illuminating and thought-provoking
I might not have landed here had I not already enjoyed Josh's other works, since I generally don't read the fantasy sort of genre. However the interpolation of the characters and their evaluation and response to the situations in the story, with the sorts of real-life challenges and quandaries we all face, was extremely effective.
The story had a way of shining a light on the tough questions we face - like what am I really trying to achieve, where is the value in the journey I am undertaking, and should I even undertake that journey - and providing room and context to consider them from a new perspective.
I think this was a great read, and one I intend to re-read (or rather, listen to) again.
