These questions Bennett asks each of us and for those who want to really live and learn, offers very valuable advice. Time is the most precious of commodities, states Bennett in this book. Many books have been written on how to live on a certain amount of money each day. And he added that the old adage "time is money" understates the matter, as time can often produce money, but money cannot produce more time.

Pourtant dans notre montre qui bouge, le changement n'est pas toujours bien pensé. La conduite d'une démarche de changement dure plus longtemps que prévu, coûte plus cher que prévu ou est abandonnée pour revenir à l'état initial.

A "Atreveix-te a fer les coses a la teva manera" l'escriptora i editora Iolanda Batallé Prats narra un relat íntim i vivencial que va més enllà d'un manual sobre lideratge. És un al·legat personal i alliberador, emotiu, directe i lúcid que, amb coratge, ens convida a viure, a fer i a dirigir lluny de l'autoritarisme imposat, amb la premissa de l'autoconeixement com a base d'una gestió empàtica, eficaç i feliç. "La meva manera de dirigir és una part indestriable de la meva manera de sentir i de viure. Lidero com visc. Visc com lidero."
