Like a magazine article on Isaac Mizrahi

This is like a magazine article about Isaac Mizrahi's background, start in the business, and inspirational books for success. It's nice to hear about his ups and downs and how his commitment eventually led to his success.

Short but impactful.

A quick and incredibly inspirational narrative. Wish I could’ve heard more about persistence and Isaac’s life and the tools that are still working for him.

Annoying bg noise. Lesson: DO YOU.

The audio is like an interview and told in tidbits of story from his experiences. The background noise, however, was so annoying that I had a hard time finishing it.

Nothing new. Easy to apply. Here are some tips on dealing with impostor syndrome and being persistent:

Focus on who you are. Stay true to your vision and the persistence will take care of itself.
Be aware of things that you can control and things you can't control. And then concentrate on things you can control. Simon Sinek calls these as things within your sphere of influence.
Do you and keep with it. Rob Dial said "just start doing it and don't stop."

Knowing that working for someone else is not really in his vision, he quit his job with only a dollar to his name. I find it courageous. He called it being "persistently commited to your vision."

So so

I couldn’t finish. He puts in annoying background music intermittently that’s very distracting. I get that he’s creative no an innovator, but there’s a well proven formula for presenting audible books and it’s not wise to mess with such a successful format.

Laugh out loud funny, yet instructive

I loved this book and the author’s personality. I’ve had this for a while and didn’t really think I would learn much from it, but I was so wrong. It was approached from the vantage point of a true creative and is written very differently from other self help books I’ve read. I thought it was absolutely fantastic!

Very honest

The narrator remains cool, calm and collected during this amazing work. I am going to look more into his life.

love it

the author was exciting, funny but most of all you can tell he was truly being himself.
