FORBES #1 CAREER BOOK TO READ IN 2018The larger-than-life journey of an 18-year-old college freshman who set out from his dorm room to track down Bill Gates, Lady Gaga, and dozens more of the world’s most successful people to uncover how they broke through and launched their careers.The Third Door takes readers on an unprecedented adventure—from hacking Warren Buffett’s shareholders meeting to … Buffett’s shareholders meeting to chasing Larry King through a grocery store to celebrating in a nightclub with Lady Gaga—as Alex Banayan travels from icon to icon, decoding their success. After remarkable one-on-one interviews with Bill Gates, Maya Angelou, Steve Wozniak, Jane Goodall, Larry King, Jessica Alba, Pitbull, Tim Ferriss, Quincy Jones, and many more, Alex discovered the one key they have in common: they all took the Third Door.
Life, business, success… it’s just like a nightclub. There are always three ways in. There’s the First Door: the main entrance, where ninety-nine percent of people wait in line, hoping to get in. The Second Door: the VIP entrance, where the billionaires and celebrities slip through. But what no one tells you is that there is always, always… the Third Door. It’s the entrance where you have to jump out of line, run down the alley, bang on the door a hundred times, climb over the dumpster, crack open the window, sneak through the kitchen—there’s always a way in. Whether it’s how Bill Gates sold his first piece of software or how Steven Spielberg became the youngest studio director in Hollywood history, they all took the Third Door.

Exhilarating and empowering… If you care about your success, you have to read The Third Door.
From redefining success with Steve Wozniak to staring death in the eyes with Jessica Alba, this book is packed with adventure, drama, and remarkable lessons the whole way through. Whether you‘re an executive or a recent college graduate, you’ll find inspiration and wisdom in The Third Door.
The reviews on this book are mixed. But for me, it’s 5 stars all the way. I listened to a YouTube interview of this young man on Tom Bilyeu. His enthusiasm and message were compelling. I had to download the book. From the interview alone I knew what to expect; but still, I was blown away by the growth that took place over a two year period as this young man followed his dream to interview the top successful people on his list. His theory is that every opportunity has a front door, a back door, and a Third Door. He wanted to ask the greats on his list how they started. Inevitably everyone finds a back door into the venue, the interview, to pursue their dreams. And there’s a twist in the book that came out of left field and will be of particular interest to female readers as well as being insightful to males. I don’t want to spoil it for you–Just read the book!
