    About this ebook

    Although Kyne's tale of business smarts has been around for some time, it doesn't feel dated. It's a straightforward parable about a young war veteran who's handed an opportunity that will either make or break his career. If he accepts the job and pulls it off, he's a go-getter; if he fails, it's curtains. His motto—“It shall be done”—sums up Kyne's point: even if you're unsure, say you can do it. Then figure out how to do it and make sure you succeed. A book about a go-getter that teaches you to be a go-getter.

      Short but rich on lessons, it’s really inspiring lesson to follow
    • 5/5
      Purposeful book. Simple, easy read that emphasizes a “figure-it-out” mentality. This is a book I read every year to help my husband and I’m business, and it’s development.
