The premise is good, but really? A whole (little) book? It's an article!1st imperative -- be aware, aware of the market opportunities, of who you are.2nd -- be educated, so you can understand what's around you.3rd -- be connected, so you can be trusted as you engage.4th -- be consistent, so the system knows what to expect.5th -- build an asset, so you have something to sell.6th -- be productive, so you can be well-priced. And of course, the 7th missing imperative -- be a starter, show initiative. p.4The rest of the book, a very small sized book with a slim 83 page total, exhorts you to show initiative. I thought I was reading an introduction. It started getting repetitive, so I flipped through, looking for the next chapter. There isn't any next chapter. It's just a string of short stories exhorting the point. There's a final page "About the Domino Project." It encourages us to "give away copies [of this book]. Lots of them." Right.
