Do the F*cking Work: Lowbrow Advice for High-Level Creativity

Probably one of the best motivational books out there. It does have a brilliant and smart design/layout. Love it.

This is a book for designers, and designers will appreciate it

I don't know if right book is good. It's impossible to read it due to poor layout.

Love love love this book. It’s so honest and funny that you can’t help but love every page! Definitely worth it 😀

TL;DR: You deserve this book. It will make you better and it's fun to read. DTFW is full of advice that is both wise to follow and beautiful to look at, and it's all nestled among pages of an engaging story. Reading it was a mix of out-loud laughter and "oh, crap" moments when advice hit a bit too close to home. Make no mistake, this is not feel-good "you can do it!" encouragement--it will challenge you, if you let it. I had to stop and reflect on almost every piece of advice, because it was applicable, it was real, and frankly it hurt a little bit to consider. This one hit me hard: "Stop f'ing around. Stop whoring out your attention to online shopping and cat videos. All those distractions are going to impact your performance, and you're bound to end up with something leaking from your creativity" (page 38). There's more to this one, and text doesn't do it justice, but I *know* I've been doing this lately, and I *know* it's getting in the way of achieving my goals. And apparently, so do Brian, Jason, and Jason, damn them. And they seem to keep knowing, page after page. The tough advice is lightened by hilarious storytelling about the origins and growing pains of the authors' company, which both motivates the advice and makes the book a bit easier to read than page after page of nonstop painful advice would be. As a result, I'm coming away from it with a strong urge to *do things* rather than cry about how everything is hard (even though it is).

A really great and inspiring book

Qualità di contenuti incredibile, possiede un visual ben marcato e l'utilizzo del testo e ben bilanciato fra il concetto che si vuole esprimere e il design utilizzato. Consiglio per chi è appassionato di design o anche per chi vuole un libro da esposizione con una copertina abbastanza accattivante.

This book can be read in one week, if you read 1 hour per day. Really love the design and valuable information it has in it. Gonna read multiple times cause you really gotta remind yourself how important to is to work hard.
