You learn a bit more on his competitive side and his insecurities, and he does seems to admit his mistakes and reflect on them. For the first time, Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson opens up about his amazing comeback-from tragic personal loss to thriving businessman and cable's highest-paid executive-in this unique self-help guide, his first since his blockbuster New York Times bestseller The 50th Law. That resonated with me, there are a lot of talented and skillful people who fade into the background because they don't have their hand up.

Having developed his initial success under his persona 50 Cent, Curtis Jackson displays his resiliency in sustaining success as a businessman and leader in here. Kind of slow and repetitive at certain points but 50’s enthusiasm is able to move the narrative along. The one that's probably going to stay with me longest is his attitude towards his detractors: "If you won't be my friend, at least be my enemy. My hope is to see him come full circle in stepping into the full power he has acquired in business within his broken personal relationships. Das Buch baut zwar auf der primären Prämisse, die oben genannten Prinzipien zu vermitteln, geht allerdings mit dieser Designation recht locker um und hat so, wie erwähnt, zuteilen eine starke autobiographische, zuweilen insbesondere akkusatorische und rechtfertigende Färbung.Recognized as one of the most talented and prolific music artists of his time, the Grammy Award winner rose to fame with his record-shattering debut album, Get Rich or Die Tryin' and has since sold more than 30 million albums worldwide and been awarded numerous prestigious accolades. Ferner dienen autobiografische Aspekte, wie der Tod seiner Mutter und die oft erwähnte Tatsache neunmal angeschossen worden zu sein, teilweise als eine Art "Gründungsmythos" 50 Cents.

No denying that 50 cent has had a LOT of success, but I find his claims of being a top mogul to be laughable. explains different lessons he’s learned throughout the years and how he learned them, then gives his advice on how to learn from his mistakes. Auch die Energie, welche in Curtis Jackson steckt, wurde in seiner Schreibweise sehr deutlich und er zeigt auch überraschend offen und ehrlich seine Ängste, Schwächen und Fehler.He has dedicated the most precious of commodities to people, Time and Experience, I really do admire him for that. Auch wenn man vielleicht mit Hip-Hop nicht so viel anfangen kann, ist das Buch trotzdem absolut lesenswert, da man auch mal eine andere Sichtweise auf die Dinge bekommt. Where The 50th Law tells readers “fear nothing and you shall succeed,” Hustle Harder, Hustle Smarter builds on this message, combining it with Jackson’s street smarts and hard-learned corporate savvy to help readers successfully achieve their own comeback—and to learn to flow with the changes that disrupt their own lives. Some parts were certainly rambly and long-winded but in an anecdotal and reflective book such as this, that is only par for the course.
