    5.0 out of 5 stars Hör auf zu dich so zu verhalten, als ob du ewig lebst!
    Reviewed in Germany on 7 December 2023
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    "Stop Acting Like You're Going to Live Forever" und das begleitende Guided Journal, sind genau die Arten von Büchern, die ich liebe: Perfekt, um jeden Morgen 10-20 Minuten zu lesen, nachzudenken und Ideen niederzuschreiben. 📝

    Seit 2017 habe ich mir diese Morgenroutine angeeignet, und diese beiden Bücher passen perfekt dazu. Für 36 Tage bekommt man täglich ein Kapitel, das auf Business-Ebene zum Nachdenken anregt. Keine flachen Kalendersprüche, sondern tiefsinnige Themen. Zum Beispiel: "Stop Acting Like You're Living Forever", "How to Run a Business Without Running You", "Cruelty is Weakness and Everybody Knows That", "Six Things You Need to Get Over to Become a Successful Entrepreneur" und "Can Your Business Survive When You Are on Holiday", und viele mehr.

    Im dazugehörigen Journal kann man täglich seine Gedanken zum jeweiligen Thema niederschreiben und bekommt zusätzlich interessante Fragen gestellt.

    Ich liebe Jodie Cooks Bücher und werde sicherlich in 6-12 Monaten diese Buch erneut durcharbeiten. Für alle, die Englisch können und jeden Tag etwas für ihr Mindset tun wollen, ist das eine klare Kaufempfehlung!

    5.0 out of 5 stars No-fluff actionnable advice
    Reviewed in the United States on 24 February 2020
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    Confession: I started reading Jodie's book in bed, thinking it would be a repetition of things I'd already read and might help me relax. Boy, was I wrong. Sure, Jodie gives some advice that you will likely have already come across if you've been running your business for a while like I have, but she doesn't gently slide it forward. She puts it up like a mirror in front of you and makes you look.
    "Stop acting like you're going to live forever" is about taking action and not wasting time. Jodie is true to her teaching as there's not one word too many in this book. She tells you what she needs to tell you without any fluff or repetition - and I appreciate that.
    The only thing that's a bit missing for me is maybe how to do the things she advises you do. But then again, there are plenty of other books for that.
    This is the perfect read if you need a little push to finally start living your best life.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great Advice from an Actual Entrepreneur
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 December 2019
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    We seem to live in times when we have an absolute plethora of books and websites offering us advice on starting our own business, leading a better life and how to make the best of your day (and days). It makes a refreshing change therefore to get some advice from an 'actual' entrepreneur (Jodie is founder of her own media agency) who clearly lives by these articles. I have followed Jodie's posts at Forbes so it was nice to see them brought together in book form. As someone who has come somewhat late to starting their own business after several years working in the corporate world, I can honestly say that the advice contained in this book will help you whether you are a corporate person, an entrepreneur or just want to live a better life and make the best of your time in this world. Chapters that particularly resonated with me were 'Decide What To Do With Your Life, Or Someone Else Will Decide For You', 'Two Mantras To Shape Your Year' (you'll have to get the book to find out what they are) and of course the book's title. A great value book with life-changing advice - what are you waiting for?

    I enjoyed the structure and style of writing off the book. I read a few chapters now and then to refocus on my business. Well done!
