so good they cannot ignore you
🤖 Abstract
This book has five parts, and the first part is about why people do what they do with their lives. Newport says that most people are “feeling” good. This means that the way they’re making a living might not be the best way for them if they have other options because of the kind of job, or even the kind of career. The author also talks about how some people have an idea of what their dream life is and then pursue it. He says that this could be the “being” category. This is because one can do things on their own but there are many distractions in the world so it’s very easy to fall behind, especially if trying to make a difference.
In the second part of the book Newport explains the concept of having a competitive advantage. He defines a competitive advantage as being able to get people to be your friend or buy what you’re selling because you’re good at what you do and know more than they do. The author says that this could be an attitude, skill, or knowledge.
In the third part of “So Good They Can’t Ignore You,” Newport talks about how people should pursue a competitive advantage when possible. He suggests figuring out one’s strengths by doing many things with different skills. This will help people have many options so that they can pick the right job or career. He also explains why the “feeling” category is important because if you don’t enjoy what you’re doing it makes it even harder to make progress.
In the fourth part of this book, Newport talks about how people should pursue a competitive advantage when possible. He says that there’s no better way than to take the idea of finding a competitive advantage and go all out for it. The author also explains why the “feeling” category is important because if you don’t enjoy what you’re doing it makes it even harder to make progress.
