Rework by Jason Fried Summary
Overview of Rework
Forget business plans and outside investors. "Rework" demolishes traditional advice, earning praise from Seth Godin and bringing Tom Peters "near-tears" with its brilliance. Why do successful entrepreneurs swear by this counterintuitive guide that champions simplicity, action, and independence over conventional wisdom?

The Business Rules You Were Taught Are Wrong
What if everything you learned about building a business is backwards? Traditional wisdom tells us to write detailed business plans, raise capital, hire aggressively, and chase growth at all costs. Yet some of the most successful companies thrive by doing the exact opposite. They start small, stay lean, and question every "must-do" on the entrepreneurial checklist. This counterintuitive approach isn't just theory-it's battle-tested reality. Consider how Southwest Airlines ignored industry norms about hub-and-spoke systems, or how Netflix eliminated late fees when competitors couldn't imagine survival without them. These companies didn't accept "real world" limitations. They rewrote the rules entirely. The dangerous phrase "that would never work in the real world" isn't wisdom-it's fear disguised as pragmatism, used to dismiss ideas that challenge comfortable assumptions. Success leaves clearer lessons than failure ever could. When something works, you know exactly what to repeat.
