I enjoyed all of the stories that the book contained. It was easy to make comparisons to my own experiences with online retailers. I love the simplicity of the Zappos brand promise: Zappos is about delivering happiness to the world. Zappos employees strive to deliver a WOW experience for their customers and this unmatched level of customer service has served as a competitive advantage and differentiation in the world of online retail. Another aspect of the book that I enjoyed were the short quotes and tweets such as "You can't stop the waves, but you can learn to surf," by Jon Kabat-Zinn and "Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself," by George Bernard Shaw. Overall, this book was a great read and much more light-hearted than traditional business books. The book gave me ideas to think about in how to make sure that I incorporate passion and purpose in my work.
