Publisher Description
What’s the difference between your competitor and your enemy?
You know who your competitors are. You keep tabs on them regularly, and can list them calmly, along with their strengths and weaknesses.
But your enemies are a whole other matter. They’re the haters and the doubters who said you’d never make it, the ones who stomped on your dreams. When you think about your enemies, you get emotional. You feel like you won’t let anything—or anyone—stop you.
In Choose Your Enemies Wisely, Patrick Bet-David, #1 Wall Street Journal bestselling author, founder of Valuetainment, and host of The PBD Podcast, shows how to harness that emotion to turbocharge your business, dominate this year, and grow for generations after.
But first, you need to choose your enemies wisely.
Bet-David has spent years perfecting the system that led to the knockout success of his own financial services company. Now, Bet-David shares the secret behind this system: his 12 Business Building Blocks, which will teach you how to seamlessly blend emotion and logic in your business plan. Both a practical document for achieving goals and the fuel needed to fire up yourself and your team, this plan goes beyond the “how” and digs deeper into the “why”: not only how you’ll get funding, but why you need long-term vision; why you must build a culture that makes employees want to run through walls; why you have to know the enemy you’re out to prove wrong. Straightforward and simple, the steps in this book will lead you to move the levers that create exponential growth and lasting success.
Read Choose Your Enemies Wisely if you are a visionary, dreamer, and big thinker. Where you are now in your business journey doesn’t matter. By following Bet-David’s plan, you will set up your business for sustainable success and accomplish your most audacious goals.

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
A master of the business plan, entrepreneur Patrick Bet-David has a brilliant method for developing your strategy. In this invaluable guide, he discusses his 12 building blocks for crafting a great business plan. The linchpin? Identifying your haters. But he doesn’t want you to hold grudges, which can turn toxic. His advice is all about maintaining the motivation you’ll need to carry you, your team, or your company through the toughest times. And what really stuck with us is that, as Bet-David puts it, there has to be a reward waiting at the end of all your hard work—and proving people wrong isn’t enough. The host of the PBD Podcast keeps the audiobook lively by including a few stories that didn’t make it into the print version, and there’s a helpful PDF for visual reinforcement. This is a great listen for anyone who needs a plan and the motivation to see it through.

See AllEnjoyed Imensely
Truly enjoyed this listen. I even was inspired to join Minnect and offer my services. Full of positive outlooks and ideas to inspire the audacious few!!!
Too repetitive
There’s a few good points but for the most part, the book is too simple and repetitive. I love listening to and watching PBD on YouTube but I think the editors should have done more for him with this book. It’s probably not a bad book if you’re a completely unmotivated person and looking for a way to get off the couch get a real job, etc. However, I don’t think experienced business people will get much from it. Hope the review helps and he produces more books & content.
Worth the time
Very concise and useful information. Can’t wait to meet you PBD!
