piabo 's review for:
The Misfit Economy: Lessons in Creativity from Pirates, Hackers, Gangsters and Other Informal Entrepreneurs
by Kyra Maya Phillips, Alexa Clay
Entrepreneurship means to make your hands dirty - I knew that before, but I didn't know so many other details about it.
This book illustrates the hustle of mostly unknown or unpopular entrepreneurs and how their ideas and actions let them to succeed (or not).
It gives an interesting perspective on the informal sector and how nonconformity is often the engine for innovation.
Definitely an inspiration to start taking every opportunity in life and stand for your dreams rather than waiting for the perfect moment. In order to achieve your (entrepreneurial) dreams, you have to work hard. And it will pay off if you just stick to it and see it as the potential for growth.
The five principles for unleashing your inner misfit (Hustle, Copy, Hack, Provoke, and Pivot) are drivers of innovation and should not only be regarded as bad.
I recommend this book to everyone who thinks about being an entrepreneur and looks for success stories outside of the mainstream as well as inspiration for creating something bigger than themselves.
