My dream job description is: to do what I want...when I want...how I want...where I want...if I want!

Do you know what you want? Too many people spend their life chasing things that don't actually make them happy! 

In Anything You Want, Derek Sivers makes the case that, as a small business owner, you get to make a little universe where you create all the laws. It's a really nice short read, about 90 minutes, and contains 40 short chapters, packed full of insights, and "aha!" moments.

This book is packed with a lot of wisdom and it just made me feel good reading it. It doesn’t matter if you are an entrepreneur, artist, or someone trying to figure out your path, you will enjoy this book! Derek does an outstanding job simplifying the lessons through his life and business experience, which I as a reader could easily relate to.
