What’s on your Summer reading list?
As an enthusiastic reader, my summer reading list includes at least fifteen books. This week, I’m particularly excited to start “The Dealmaker” by Mauricio Umansky and “The Entrepreneur Roller Coaster” by Darren Hardy.
As shared on AMAZON:
The Dealmaker: How to Succeed in Business & Life Through Dedication, Determination & Disruption
Mauricio Umansky, real estate mogul, longtime fan favorite of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, and star of his own Netflix series Buying Beverly Hills inspires budding entrepreneurs and self-starters of all backgrounds with tips and strategies to find success at work and at home.
After more than twenty years in the cutthroat real estate business, Mauricio Umansky has seen and heard it all. Now, he’s ready to share everything he’s learned throughout the highs and lows of his illustrious career in this part memoir, part leadership manifesto.
From the challenges of his childhood to outgrowing his father’s textile company and falling out with his brother-in-law Rick Hilton, while also raising a family and maintaining a strong marriage for over twenty-five years, Umansky has plenty of advice and lessons for aspiring entrepreneurs and self-starters across all industries. By outlining his fundamental principles of success, Umansky will embolden those who are ready to work hard and are prepared to meet adversity head on, which requires endless stamina, grit, and determination.
Each chapter will center around a specific piece of wisdom and offer insightful takeaways including: How to Play Hard and Work Harder, How to Find Your Professional and Personal Passions, How to be an Innovator Not an Imitator, The Art of the Sell, The Benefits of Remaining Positive, How to Achieve Balance, and so much more.
Umansky’s journey has been anything but boring. It’s been unpredictable, exhilarating, and emotionally and physically demanding at times. In The Dealmaker, he imparts his hard-earned knowledge, along with strategies he’s taught himself, for anyone and everyone looking to build their own fruitful career and to find the happiness we all seek in life. Welcome to his exclusive and exciting world.
The Entrepreneur Roller Coaster: Why Now Is the Time to #JointheRide
66 PERCENT OF SMALL BUSINESSES FAIL — AND IT’S NOT FOR THE REASONS YOU THINK*.
This book is designed for those new (or early stage) to entrepreneurship or those who have watched from afar and have wanted/wished to join in, but the fear of the unknown has kept them stupefied and in paralysis.
This book will detail the worst (which is not so scary after all) and the best (which is absolutely thrilling) of being in business for yourself and give you the essential skills to be successful (preventing the 66% death rate).
The focus of the book is on the emotional journey one takes when they step onto the wild ride of entrepreneurship. It’s meant to warn (forthcoming fears, doubts and self-defeating conditioning of past/upbringing), inoculate (from the naysayers, dream stealers and pains of rejection and failure) and guide them (building those undeveloped skills of independence, self-motivation and self-accountability) safely past the landmines that blow up (cause failure) of 66% of all new businesses.
