wilycheese's review against another edition
1.0
Do not buy this book. There are about 6 pages of it that are worth reading, but the rest of it is simply about the importance of naming something in your life as a "productive obsession." That's the thesis, and the substantiating work is a collection of comments from the author's website users at different stages of their experiment with a productive obsession.
Name your productive obsession. Figure out if an internal fear of failure or rejection or something else is keeping you from pursuing your goal. Try - really try obsessing - for 90 days. Don't neglect your family. Take a break if you need, and maybe then pick it back up.
There. I just did all the hard work for you and saved you $17.

I love so much about Eric's work. This book raises such great questions about how to risk big ideas, how to take on the hard challenges of creation, how to pony up to bigger ideas. I only wish he had given more insight into how to think deeper and develop ideas - Eric your next book idea!!
