Together Is Better: A Little Book of Inspiration

Together Is Better is a quick read, but it packs a surprising amount of inspiration into such a small book. It’s full of short messages, simple drawings, and little reminders about leadership, teamwork, and choosing to walk through life with people who lift you up. Even though it’s light and easy to get through, the ideas stay with you. What I enjoyed most is that the book feels encouraging without being preachy. Each page has a motivational quote or concept that makes you stop and think about the kind of team you want to be part of — at work, at home, or in everyday life. It’s the kind of book you can flip open at random and still get something out of it. If there’s a downside, it’s that it’s very simple. If you’re looking for deep explanations or longer stories, this isn’t that type of book. But for what it is — a little boost of positivity and perspective — it nails it. Overall, I think it’s a meaningful, uplifting read. Short, thoughtful, and a good reminder that life really is better when we choose to move forward together.

Together is better truly has that extra touch! Innovators are visionaries that see what needs to be made better for people like me! For this I am grateful, to be as naturally curious about everything!

I saw a quote in a work email about people debating whether the glass is half full or empty, and how those people are missing the point, the glass is refillable... I was curious hand looked into the person that gave the quote. I was immediately inspired by the author, Simon Sinek. I bought this book to help inspire my husband. He’s 49 this year with a bachelors degree but hates his job. His degree did not end up putting him in the direction he wanted. He has talked about going back for a masters, but it’s been all talk as he continues to struggle with motivation because of fear. I introduced him to the Ted Talk to finding your why... and within an hour he came up with a great and deep why. I bought this book for our 18th anniversary today, in May will be out 11th married. We are a team, and our company is our home. So this book can be seen in so many lights. Whether it’s your team at work, your team at home, your team of friends, your college team, etc... I hope he loves it, as this may have been the most thoughtful gift that comes straight from my heart. I just ordered a second book for my 19 year old daughter, that grew up with her father. She lacked the kind of love and support a parent should give until she was 15 when we found each other... yes, I hadn’t seen her for 9 years... anyway, she wants to do college alone, and I think it’s great... but I have also been opening her up to new ideas and to being able to accept support. She listens and loves when I can show her new ways to ease her mind, and I think this will be a great addition to her college apartment.

I can't recommend this book enough! Simon is somehow able to pack the very essence of good leadership into a fun, engaging format that leaves you feeling motivated to change the very atmosphere of you workplace, no matter what position or title you may hold!

Interesting book. It is written as if like a children's story book. Simon Sinek is a very good leadership and motivational writer, and he does not disappoint in this book. Most concepts discussed the importance of dependence on your team and perseverence in hardships, and it spoke it so elegantly with the beautiful handdrawn illustrations. I guess the only kind of book I can relate this one to is "Who Moved My Cheese?" where the writer takes technical concepts and metaphorically weaves it into the storyline to make it entertaining and meaninful for the reader. Mr. Sinek does this very well in this book. The book also has a characteristic smell to it that in my opinion is woody, and bold. That with stating, I did not learn any new concepts in this book, only that he spoke the concepts in a different way and possibly for a specific audience. I had originally purchased because i wanted to use this book as one of my groomsmen gifts, but it is best left to give to a young colleague or college graduate trying to find his way in his career.

Anything Simon Sinek is an excellent read.. I have this as a gift and it was adorable

Okay, let's be real, if you LOVE Simon Sinek, you'll love this book. It's a quick 5-10 min read. Each page is an inspirational quote or topic that follows an illustrated story. Very abstract but you get the gist pretty quickly. If you take the tame and focus on one page at a time you get a deeper meaning to each step. My favorite part of the whole book was the scratch and sniff page. I have NO idea why. It shocked me when I came across that page, and was like REALLY?!? Then after reading the entire book, I went back and scratched the smelly page again. lol It ended up being a highlight of the book for me. That and the perception change of the children as the story progresses. Super cute idea and I liked the concept of this book.

Good book

Quick and easy to digest simple words with basic drawings to inspire you to do what your heart desires.

Davvero un ottimo libro. Mi piace molto il metodo che l'autore usa per esprimere i concetti, trovo che sia di grande ispirazione per molti ambiti della vita. Tutto in inglese, con molte illustrazioni. Consigliato

The delivery was fast, but the book cover was a bit dirty.. The book itself was a good one, the only reason I kept is that I have been searching for a while till I found it..

Una bella historia que hace paralelismo con la vida adulta, sobre las relaciones de poder y sometimiento.

At first it may seem like a Children's book. You may complete book in less than an hour in its entirety. But the way it is written and the message in each and every sentence will give you complete different perspective towards leadership and team management. One of the must read for everybody.
