The Myths and Truths of Entrepreneurship Publisher's Summary

Forget everything you’ve been told about entrepreneurship being only for fearless risk-takers or people with billion-dollar ideas. "Myths and Truths of Entrepreneurship: The Comprehensive Guide to Building a Business" smashes those startup stereotypes and gives you the real, research-backed roadmap to success.

Drawing from over 30 years in software development and 20 years of building businesses that actually worked, Phil Smy shows you why entrepreneurship is a skill you can learn — not some magical talent you’re born with. You’ll hear exactly how calculated risk beats reckless gambles, why execution trumps so-called revolutionary ideas, and how collaborating with others can get you further than going it alone.

Perfect for first-time founders, this audiobook will teach you why "act, learn, build" outperforms endless business planning — and how to apply that mindset to your own journey.

And because listening is just the beginning, you’ll also get access to a companion workbook packed with practical exercises. You’ll be able to map out your unique strengths, plan for risks, and create an action plan tailored to you — saving years of costly trial and error.

Whether you’re just thinking about launching or already on the path, this is the guide every modern entrepreneur needs — straight-talking, practical, and designed to get you moving.
