Book Hack
The 10% EntrepreneurBy Patrick J. McGinnis

In a Nutshell

Entrepreneurship doesn't have to be an all-or-nothing choice. You can live your start-up dream without quitting your day job.

Favorite Quote

Start a part-time business and make as many mistakes as you possibly can while you still have your daytime job.

Robert Kiyosaki, founder of Rich Dad

Introduction

A 2022 Gallup Poll revealed that nearly 70% of Americans are either 'not engaged' or 'actively disengaged' at work.

But although traditional corporate roles are neither as stable nor as rewarding as they once were, pursuing the upside and excitement of full-time entrepreneurship is not for everyone.

Patrick McGinnis is a graduate of Harvard Business school and founder of Dirigo Advisors.

McGinnis's global bestseller, The 10% Entrepreneur, is based on his experience mixing the stability of a part-time job with the flexibility of entrepreneurship.

Depending on your particular skills, your interests, and your stage in life, you may find that taking an entrepreneurial course is not practical or even accessible. The answer to this dilemma is to become a 10% Entrepreneur.

You don't have to be a full-time entrepreneur to be entrepreneurial. Instead, you can invest, advise, and start entrepreneurial ventures — all without leaving your day job.
