⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

- Aggressively owning your sphere of influence is an important lesson for everyone, especially myself. If I took away anything from the book, it was simply the importance of this principal and the impact it can have on a team when it’s properly practiced.

- For those who say that this is a very influential book (e.g. Naval Ravikant) that changed the way they think, it is true. It’s one of those books where the ideas proposed get circulated frequently through my thoughts and framework of the world.
