Story
They say you shouldn't ask your mom whether your business is a good idea, because she loves you and will lie to you. This is technically true, but it misses the point. You shouldn't ask anyone if your business is a good idea. It's a bad question, and everyone will lie to you at least a little. As a matter of fact, it's not their responsibility to tell you the truth. It's your responsibility to find it, and it's worth doing right.

Publisher's Summary
“Pay attention.” (Jason Fried)
A revolutionary road map for building start-ups that go the distance.
Now more than ever, you don’t need a fancy office, Ivy League degree, or millions of dollars in venture capital to launch a business that matters for the communities you care most about. Software, the internet, and remote work have made it possible for entrepreneurs to start for free, make a customer of anyone, and grow a profitable, sustainable company from anywhere.
Packed with hard-won, battle-tested lessons from Lavingia’s own journey of building Gumroad, a platform for creators to sell their work, The Minimalist Entrepreneur teaches founders how to:
- Start then learn
- Build a community, then solve a problem for them
- Charge for something even before you’ve built anything
- Avoid running out of money and, more importantly, energy
- Run a tight ship amid the rise of the gig economy and remote work
- Own a business without it owning you back
The Minimalist Entrepreneur is the manifesto for a new generation of founders who would rather build great companies than big ones. This is essential knowledge for every founder aspiring to build a business worth building.
What the critics say
"Sahil Lavingia's book changed the way I think about my life and my business, and opened my mind to possibilities for a different--and better--model for successful entrepreneurship. A brilliant, fascinating read." (John Green, cofounder of Complexly and author of The Fault in Our Stars and The Anthropocene Reviewed)
"Sahil knows not. He knows what not to do, what not to follow, how not to waste, and how not to get caught up in the hype. What's left is the yes - the stuff that really works, the things that actually matter. It's all in this book, and much of it only in this book. Pay attention." (Jason Fried, cofounder of Basecamp and coauthor of Rework)
"A must-read for any potential founder. Brilliant insights into starting something simply and sensibly. Best guide to the new world of starting from anywhere." (Derek Sivers, founder of CDBaby and author of Anything You Want)

So enjoyed...
Warm, humble wisdom... full of good points about life and entrepreneurship. It was an "experience" to listen and to read - the hardcover is gorgeous as well. Thanks, Sahil.
