Tomorrow
Create Your Future Today
Khalil Gibran said, “Yesterday is but today’s memory, and tomorrow is today’s dream.” While the ink of yesterday has dried, the pen of tomorrow is still between our fingers. Our tomorrow is ours to dream. Our tomorrow is ours to write. Do not believe you cannot reinvent your tomorrow. And do not let anyone write your tomorrow. This is the essence of this book.

I chanced upon this book through the recommendation of a friend. Not knowing what to expect, I started reading and, to my surprise, finished the book in one sitting.
Ike Lee’s rags-to-riches story makes for a compelling backdrop to the nuggets of wisdom offered in
Tomorrow: Create Your Future Today. I was immediately drawn into his inspiring life story. His determination, insight, and conscientiousness shine through his writing. Through reading this book, I got a glimpse of the essential qualities that makes a person successful in life.
The examples and stories in the book are relatable and applicable across disciplines, not only for those seeking to become business owners, CEOs, or venture capitalists. For example, tips on networking are useful no matter which field the reader is in. The book’s 7 steps to building your own network are particularly helpful, and can even be made into a book itself!
A quick read sure to leave you determined an inspired to create excellence in your life!

Verified PurchaseWonderfully easy to read book on what it takes for an entrepreneur to face the challenges of tomorrow. Mr. Lee is a true life, modern day exemplar of a character from a Horatio Alger novel, and he readily shares what shapes his philosophy and lead him to success. However, this is not a typical “how to succeed at business” book focusing on a step-by-step recipe; rather, Mr. Lee concentrates on the belief system of the inner person, using examples from his own life and from well known business leaders. It’s an interesting approach that leads to a very useful book. Nina Rahardjo5.0 out of 5 stars I like how this has a lot of stories rather than …

Verified PurchaseI like how this has a lot of stories rather than packed with theories. It’s good to sort out the thoughts as you reflect on the stories and the lessons learnt there. Learning how he handles things gives me a guide as to the different ways i could be handling things too. the candidness cuts through the bullshits. I would really recommend this book to you if you want some candid stories about the business really works.

Verified PurchaseI enjoyed this book very much because I was able to see myself in the many stories he covered in this book. The author shares his personal experience from being a child in a postwar country to how he became a successful and respected VC Corporate Advisor and a professor. He has honest tone throughout the book, which adds depth to his special storytelling techniques. It allowed me to immerse myself into the story and feel like I finally met someone who also went through agony pursing their dreams. To me, the author is like a personal mentor who gives me insight and support while I work towards the future that I want to make. I hope people could experience what I experienced with this book and “move closer to a tomorrow that started with a dream.” Charles Koh5.0 out of 5 stars Crisp and relevant

This book is so easy to read and so intimate. I don’t read business guru how to books, and this book is not … by a million miles. Rather, it is a wonderful reminder of how we usually missed the cues in everyday life, weather as a corporate worrier or a startup founder. It is like good notebook that can be kept in the pocket and at any page, the reader will find wisdom and this for me at least is a reminder … if nothing else, to be a good person.
It’s nice to be reminded that we are all human and failure is part of being human. Just keep going and be honorable in the face of adversity.

Verified PurchaseReading Tomorrow was an inspiration to me – It resonates powerfully from the stories of the author’s own as well as of many others who have truly created their own tomorrow through deep experiential and emotional transformations. The author shares his valuable experiences with us to teach about the attitudes and qualities that can empower those who struggle to move to the next level to rely on everyday intuitions and interactions to achieve success not only in business but also in life.
