The more I read these types of books, the more excited I get about life - about finding my purpose and loving others. Daring and Disruptive was a fun and inspiring biography/self-help book. I loved that all the business and goal achieving advice was from Messenger's own experience. I found this book for $1.5o in an Anglican op-shop, and to be honest it's been one of the best bargains I've come across this year! Lisa Messenger goes beyond just talking about business and finance, but rather focusses on purpose and meaning, and the "why" behind our actions and decisions. She's encouraged me to pursue my dreams even harder and now I genuinely believe I can achieve them! Thank you Lisa if you are reading this.
An easy and inspiring read. Most of the advice is fairly general. A nice reminder though for those navigating the entrepreneurial path, and it is also enjoyable to hear about her personal experience.

I had first discovered this book upon scouring the internet for more of Lisa Messenger's works, being a big fan of the Collective Hub workbooks bought awhile back (Eg. The Ultimate Guide to Social Media Marketing, Start Up to Scale Up starter kit). Before diving in, I figured that I would not discover what was not already discovered before in other self-help books I had read so far like the commonplace tips be your best self and think outside the box. Also from just looking at the cover, I thought that this would go more in-depth on Ms. Messenger's life and how she got to where she is now. Little did I know that I was still able to learn something new from this book, as just like what is on the tin (or book in this case) Ms. Messenger's writings does truly daringly disrupt ones' thought process. Not only are the commonplace tips there (see: being your best self) but in Lisa-format, but there are also other useful tips like building your culture, leverging with non-monetary assets, and failing fast just to name a few. Amongst all of the great tips presented here, the tip that stood out to me in particular was failing fast, since this was very bizarre to wrap my head around and stood on an extreme opposite end to the usual "plan out meticulous business plans" tips resonating from previous books read. With all this said, if you are looking for insight on providing a more fresh mindset and perspective, definitely give this book a try!
