Famous entrepreneur and startup founder, billionaire Jack Dorsey has made a book recommendation - The Art Spirit by Robert Henri in his talks to entrepreneurs and startup founders in the valley.
Jack Dorsey thinks this book is both philosophical, poetic and beautifully written. The journey of being an artist is surprisingly similar to the journey of becoming a successful entrepreneur. During his talk, he would read excerpts from this book. TNW wrote "Reading from Robert Henri’s “The Art Spirit“, Dorsey made comparisons about what’s in the story with how it relates to startups. He said that entrepreneurs should build what they want and with purpose."
