To quote T. E. Lawrence, “All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes to make them possible.”
Jack Ma, the founder of e-commerce behemoth Alibaba, has built his success based on his belief and dream that the Internet will become something big in the future, when no one believed he would succeed in any way.
This book shares Ma’s entrepreneurial journey and many of his valuable insights and advice that will definitely impact many youth and budding entrepreneurs.
