About this audiobook

The morning I was handed the bulldozer, I had no idea how to start it. Nobody on the crew knew that. What they saw was someone who looked like he belonged in the cab. "Fake it till you make it" has a bad reputation, and usually it has earned it. This audiobook is about the honest version: curate, don't lie. Show what's genuinely true about you when it matters, keep working on the rest, and never claim a fact about yourself that isn't true. Built on real stories from the author's own life, from arriving in the UK with almost no English to a first business that took everything with it, it shows you how to carry yourself with real confidence, keep emotions from making your decisions, build credibility, hold your boundaries, and handle money so the image and the reality finally match. Every chapter ends with a short "Try this" exercise you can use the same week.
