“But what if...?” book recommendations

Sent by Jonathan Stark on February 5th, 2019

A few people responded to my “But what if...?” message from the other day to ask for book recommendations about how to combat the fear that comes with shipping new work.

These three books came to mind immediately:

Do The Work by Steve Pressfield
Just F@#king Ship by Amy Hoy
What To Do When It’s Your Turn by Seth Godin

Notes:

If you’re into audio books, #1 has a great audiobook read by the author.
I’m a little uncomfortable recommending #3 because I haven’t read it. But Seth is a genius on this topic and based on the book summary, WTDWIYT seems dedicated to the issue of “dancing with the fear of failure” as he puts it.

Do you have faves in this category that I should add to my list? Hit reply and let me know :-)

Yours,
