Sack Your Boss

Book excerpt:

Have you reached that point in your job where you’re thinking ‘enough is enough’?
In this book, Christian Rodwell, the Founder of Escape The Rat Race, shows that there is a proven process anyone who is currently employed but looking to start their own business can follow: ‘The choices for someone wishing to exit a corporate 9-5 job and start a new business are numerous and this can easily lead to overwhelm, confusion….and over-analysing the options for so long that you end up taking no action at all. Finding enough time to fit your new business around your full time job and family commitments will also be a challenge, which is why I've dedicated an entire chapter to show you ways to overcome this.' Not everyone who wishes to quit the rat race and start a business knows exactly what business would be best suited to them initially. This book will help you to get to know yourself better, identifying your motives for wanting to sack your boss and answering the question, ‘what would I would love to do each day if money were no object?’. Christian Rodwell has been through all of these challenges himself, and has worked with over 1000 other ‘#escapees’ who are on the same journey. Christian illustrates within this book his process for helping such individuals map out their very own ‘9-5 escape plan’ - ‘The Five Step Freedom Formula™’. 'I’ll guide you through the steps you need to take before you identify what your winning strategy is for starting a business you love. At the end of this book, you’ll have all of the answers ready to complete your very own 90 Day Escape Plan, a specific and personalised personal development plan which I have put together for you.'

This is something I have done for myself and I work with people every week who are in the process of doing the same.’ Based around a proven five-step formula, the author guides readers through every step of gaining true clarity on their life goals, focusing their attention on achieving them – and making that bold transition from frustrated employee to unstoppable entrepreneur. ‘They’ll face everything from their deepest fears and hesitations, to a true and frank appraisal of their finances – all intended to cut out fluff so they can crack on with productively taking action on building that business they’ve always dreamed of. The 90-day “escape plan” I share is unlike anything they’ve seen before, but I can almost guarantee it will change their life’.
