The Will To Win: Leading, Competing, Succeeding

I'm a huge fan of Robert his work, so I was curious about this book and felt confident buying it after reading all the positive feedback on here.What can I say?! This book is simply amazing! Very well written and a lot of business and life advise. I would definitely recommend this book to everyone who is into business in any kind. My time (and money) was very well invested!

A fantastic guy on shark tank who has that warm Canadian persona. Very inspiring and certainly a guy to have a chat with over a Tim Hortons!

Great book!'

Everyone can relate to the story, Robert did a great job explaining his route to the tipping point of making him a very successful person. His words are very true, Seems as if he speaks from his heart and carries it on his shoulder. Robert if you read this review.... Do you have embedded this phrase in my mind which I will follow every day.. "Go really really fast".-Gary

It has been an absolutely amazing book. Everything you need to know about leadership and entrepeneurship. Better than expected. Thanks Robert!

Very well written, provides significant insight into Mr. Herjavec's life and business perspectives. Great recommendations within the book can help the reader evaluate and re-tool one's own purpose to become more successful in both personal and business relationships. Favorite concepts; be willing to kick your own azz; evaluate your weaknesses and learn to drive oneself towards personal improvement and new accomplishment across all facets of one's life. Don't overlook or under appreciate one's strengths during that process. Master the art of discretion; learn when to speak and most importantly, when to listen, and always embrace one's humility no matter how much life success is encountered.

Ok, let’s just get it out of the way first, the narrative tends to go all over the place. But it is not distracting, it actually makes the chapters more stand-alone, which is perfect for me. So, I don’t really mind.I may be biased, but I don’t like motivational books. I believe the content delivered by plethora of such books over a couple of decades hasn’t really changed and I became immune to the motivational highs they deliver. I don’t consider this a motivational book in that sense. Let me just leave it at that.When I picked this up, I did not expect to become a business wiz or develop an overnight Will to Win by the end of this book. And so, I actually enjoyed this book. I love the personal story in some chapters and how candid the author is in some of the end chapters when he talks about the churn in his own company. To me, this book is simply the author’s reflection on the his personal journey through various aspects of his personal and professional life and his learning’s from the same. And that makes it more relatable. The author Does not give the illusion of being perfect, he appears human in all the situations he talks about, like dealing with pain of personal loss or taking though decisions when needed, and I really like that. That is what makes me identify with him and the wisdom he coveys through all of these anecdotes sinks in.I find myself coming back to certain chapters of this book over and over again. I have a few bookmarks and read those chapters in isolation and I do end up feeling warm, happy and ready to refocus on my own challenges without giving me a motivation high (and then a crash). I would say that is a win!P.S. I particularly love how the book ends with a heart-touching anecdote of kindness and positivity, that is one of the chapters I keep going back to. I didn’t read “Driven” but I did read “You don’t have to be a shark” and the last chapter there ends somewhat similarly as well. You leave the book feeling positive and happy, at least I did.
