Kennedy debunks twenty treasured maxims to show would-be millionaires that the techniques they thought were helping them are actually holding them back.A successful entrepreneur and highly sought-after motivational speaker, Kennedy writes in a brisk, no-nonsense style to show how the advice of so-called ?experts? run against the experience of most successful people. The first rule of success, he argues, is to throw out all the other rules.For instance:? Forget just about everything you were ever told about positive thinking. Optimism is helpful, but blind optimism is just plain stupid. Identify and plan for every possible objection or setback that could come your way or be prepared to be thrown for some real loops.? The customer is not always right. Make an effort to understand people?s dissatisfaction, but a pain in the neck is a waste of time. Be prepared to ?fire? customers who are never satisfied and concentrate on those you can make happy.? Forget about creativity. Plain, ordinary ideas make people rich every day, as long as they are willing to work very, very hard at the run-of-the-mill things they do.Full of anecdotes about people who defied convention, this energetic, plain-talking guide offers practical, hands-on advice to help you become a successful entrepreneur.

Kennedy's book: "How to Succeed in Business by Breaking all the Rules: A Plan for Entrepreneurs". This complete summary of the ideas from Dan S. Kennedy's book "How to Succeed in Business by Breaking all the Rules" points out that most business books give “rules for success”. However, the research suggests that in fact, people should do the opposite: you can actually achieve more by ignoring conventional wisdom than you’ll ever achieve simply by following the masses. Eschewing these conventional wisdoms takes bravery, arrogance, and an understanding that you alone are responsible for your own destiny, but the rewards can exceed your greatest expectations. This summary highlights some myths propagated by business books and demonstrates their flaws. Positive thinking, for example, isn’t the cure-all many believe it to be, especially if it breeds blind optimism and stops people from doing their research. Creativity should be valued, but it’s important to realise that you need to make money – sometimes it’s best to base your ideas on ones in the past. Even the most inventive films, such as Star Wars, are founded on old ideas (in this case, Westerns). Prevailing wisdom says that winners never quit, but actually, winners know when to jettison things that aren’t working. Added-value of this summary: • Save time • Understand the key concepts • Increase your business knowledge To learn more, read "How to Succeed in Business by Breaking all the Rules" and start thinking for yourself!

Book excerpt: Why work harder than you have to? One manager kept his senior execs happy by secretly hacking into the company's database to give them the reports they needed in one third of the time. Hacking is a powerful solution to every stupid procedure, tool, rule, and process we are forced to endure at the office. Benevolent hackers are saving business from itself. It would be so much easier to do great work if not for lingering bureaucracies, outdated technologies, and deeply irrational rules and procedures. These things are killing us. Frustrating? Hell, yes. But take heart-there's an army of heroes coming to the rescue. Today's top performers are taking matters into their own hands: bypassing sacred structures, using forbidden tools, and ignoring silly corporate edicts. In other words, they are hacking work to increase their efficiency and job satisfaction. Consultant Bill Jensen teamed up with hacker Josh Klein to expose the cheat codes that enable people to work smarter instead of harder. Once employees learn how to hack their work, they accomplish more in less time. They cut through red tape and circumvent stupid rules. For instance, Elizabeth's bosses wouldn't sign off on her plan to improve customer service. So she made videotapes of customers complaining about what needed fixing and posted them on YouTube. Within days, public outcry forced senior management to reverse its decision. Hacking Work reveals powerful technological and social hacks and shows readers how to apply them to sidestep bureaucratic boundaries and busywork. It's about making the system work for you, not the other way around, so you can take control of your workload, increase your productivity, and help your company succeed-in spite of itself.
