The Book in Three Sentences

This book is a series of letters written by a successful entrepreneur, John Graham, to his son offering various pieces of advice throughout the boy's college years and early career. For example, 1) It isn't so much knowing a whole lot, as knowing a little and how to use it that counts. 2) Putting off an easy thing makes it hard, and putting off a hard one makes it impossible. 3) A good wife doubles a man's expenses and doubles his happiness, and that's a pretty good investment if a fellow's got the money to invest. And many other insights. (jamesclear.com)
