He's looking back at his journey and sharing what he did wrong, and it resonates, I imagine, with a lot of founders, CEOs, business owners, and executives or employees dealing with them. He talks through his decisions about taking on and buying out partners, reducing prices and what that did to the business, delegating tasks to let go of his "I need to wear every hat as the founder" mentality, stress and burnout and what he did with his routine to change it, the pressures of working with multi-million dollar clients, and how relationships with people in the company create the culture--and how you should do this on day 1 with every new hire. I heard that. Another thing he touches on is failure, and being stuck at "we’ve proven that we can’t grow beyond this point, so let’s just stay where we are and call it good enough." I think everyone goes through these mistakes and keeps going because they want success, and he also talks about that in the last chapter.

This is a wonderful resource for all entrepreneurs and business owners. Nolan shares his experience of creating and managing a business through stories and personal examples. Not only does he share the challenges he has faced but also very practical questions you should be asking and resources to tap into in order to navigate those challenges yourself. His engaging narrative brings this book to life, highly recommended!
