Be Fearless: 5 Principles for a Life of Breakthroughs and Purpose

Really like this book
I thought this was a great book that is part “how to” guide but with a lot of interesting and inspiring stories of ordinary or everyday people who found a way to make their big ideas come to life. There are well known stories of success too, but what I liked is that the author shows how even really successful people like Oprah, Steve Jobs and Steven Spielberg had fears and failures that most people don’t know about on their way to success. The author talks about her own unlikely path to success beginning with very humble roots in a small town. The book inspired me to think about how to move forward with my own life now and my guess is it will do the same for other readers.

An Inspirational Read that's Actually Actionable
This is an enjoyable, engaging read that lays out principles to succeed and gives concrete examples of how people have put theory into action. I was afraid the author - who has an inspiring story of her own: internet pioneer, Chairwoman of National Geographic, CEO of a charitable organization - would just write a self-aggrandizing memoir, but the book is full of real stories and is an inspiring roadmap for success. Quite nice. Check it out.

So Inspiring, so encouraging, so relatable, so JEAN!
This book is awesome! It uses successful life stories to help the reader overcome fear, whether that fear is of failure or other kinds of challenges. The author addresses her own life changes and shares how she has achieved great success. There are other examples of great achievements by well-knowned individuals. Most importantly, she stresses the significance of being "fearless" as a tool in achieving success.

Ok - nothing groundbreaking
The stories were ok, but I found that the chapter titles were the most exciting part of the book. To me, it was fairly dry read.

Jean Case at National Press Club in Washington, DC
Jean Case's "Be Fearless" is a remarkable and inspirational book that students, entrepreneurs or anyone who is pursuing their dreams should read and can take heart in knowing that with hard work, patience and persistence anything is possible. Fearless, innovation and invention are the fuel that has propelled humankind since the beginning of time and Jean Case captures this sprit in her terrific book. It will no doubt inspire another generation of innovators. Well Done!

Great read - core principles brought to life with stories
An easy read with lots of stories illustrating the five key principles of Be Fearless. I love the summary at the end of each chapter and call to action. I often skip the epilogue and afterword when reading but not with this book. Jean Case is a great storyteller!

Not that useful and not interesting.
The book is composed of some big titles (Be audacious, take risks, take the long view, etc.) and fragmented stories.Those big titles are correct, but mostly useless and empty. There are lots of stories to support the titles — but they are too short to be interesting.
