Our biggest hurdle today isn’t finding the right hack to more output, but understanding that accepting limitations actually improves our results. The follow-up to the critically-acclaimed Bring Your Worth, Build From Now shows how each and every one of us has 4 different resources: focus, agility, time, and energy. We have more or less of each, based on where we are in our lives. Know your strengths and you’ll be able to be productive, creative, and inspired. Forever.
Like Damon Brown’s best-selling Bite-Sized Entrepreneur series, Build From Now shows you how to take resources you already have to create the world you want to see.

I sped through this book in a day — it was that good! Damon is a talented writer who keeps you hooked, and you can tell he put his soul into this work. The messaging goes beyond typical business or entrepreneur books (and I've read tons) to get to the heart of the matter ... your 24 hours in a day are not the same as anyone else's. I felt goosebumps while reading about the "real talk" behind limitations and how to use those to catapult yourself to success. The FATEs — Focus, Agility, Time, Energy — should be shifted up and down based on your own needs. That's exactly what I needed to hear for 2021, when we're all exhausted and worn down after a tough 2020. It inspired me to consider these factors for myself this year and how I want to move forward on my next project. Thanks for the inspirational read!
