Where are the worksheets?!

The ideas in this book make so much sense to a brand new entrepreneur but where are the worksheets?! No way I'm going to remember all the things he's telling me: especially since I'm listening to it because I have ADHD. I can't be bothered to sit through actually reading the print (which I would love to do if I could).

A must read for small business entrepreneurs

There are a lot of books on business and leadership that focus in specific areas, or provide top level guidance. Traction digs down deep to provide the basics needed to build a foundation for structure and growth in a small business. Very excited to begin implementing what I’ve learned in the book!
