    Read this for my Honors Management Course at Widener University.
  

*by S***Y on Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2022*

I read this book in my Management 100 honors course at Widener University and I absolutely loved it. The realness of Alex and his journey is so comforting as a college student because it emphasizes that you do not need to know exactly what you want to do with your life in the early semesters of school and that it is okay to follow your dreams and take a different route than the one that is expected of you. His drive and ambition in hand with his persistence is inspiring for a young college student who feels suffocated by the thought of having to know what path they are taking with their life. Banayan keeps the reader engaged by relating his life to them and showing them what it takes to be successful in yourself. I would totally recommend this book to my peers as it was enlightening and comforting at the same time.

    this book should be a staple for any young and ambitious person
  

*by T***M on Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2019*

I’m in DC for the first time and instead of visiting Museums, I’ve been cooped up at a coffee shop reading The Third Door and I don’t regret a single second.I’ve read dozens of biz and self-help books, and self-published a few myself, and I am blown away at your story.You live your life with boldness and courage. You also are a fantastic writer that knows how to tell good stories. It’s been a long time since a non fiction book can make me smile, tear up, and cover my mouth eagerly waiting to read the rest of the paragraph.I would like to share with you some of my favorite quotes with additional notes from the book.Quotes:- “What’s the Tube?”- “So I spent some time that morning wondering what Elliott would wear.”- “Mystery makes history? Are you insane?”- “When the White House calls, you answer.”- “It was like a business casual Running of the Bulls.”- Yes, Mom, I’m thinking. Have you ever tried thinking?”- “I didn’t know what to say, so I did the only thing I could think of — I stuffed an egg roll in my mouth.“It dawned on me that advice from Bill Gates was never my Holy Grail. My mistakes on my way to get to him were what changed me the most.”Patterns I’ve seen:- “You didn’t hear this from me, but...”- “I’m not supposed to tell you this, but...”- “I usually don’t do [activity], but...”Notes:- I think people underestimate how much you worked for everything. The obsession over every guest with extensive prep work. The perseverance to get blacklisted. To be creative and use every resource you can. I don’t think anyone can safely claim you got “lucky.”- Even when you got rejected, like to have a meeting with Buffet, you got 6 free passes to Ohama which is still a win. Most people just never ask.- When you asked Pitbull, “What was your level one?” I felt so happy for you. That is a GREAT question. Good on you for listening to Cal and applying his advice despite fears/doubts.- Elliott sounds like an amazing human being. I have also done extensive research on who is he but few sources actually told his full story. Your book made me love him even more.Final thoughts:I thoroughly enjoyed the book very much. It very accurately describes my unconventional path after dropping out of school as well. I will recommend this to any young person who asks me for advice. Thank you for writing it, Alex!

    A thrilling adventure, and giant lesson in having the courage to try
  

*by L***I on Reviewed in the United States on June 5, 2018*

I first heard about Alex while perusing through the 30 under 30 lists in 2015, a distinction he received for his work in Venture Capital. Intrigued by his accomplishment but knowing little about his adventures, I decided to follow along via social media.After keeping tabs on his journey in the years that followed, I was definitely excited to finally read what became The Third Door, but admittedly didn't know what to expect. My inclination was that it would be much like any other business book about success -- a collection of anecdotes that deliver life lessons. An interesting read, but perhaps, like many similar books I've read in the past, nothing life-changing.I am thrilled to admit that I was wrong.The Third Door is nothing like any business or self-help book I've ever read. It reads as a thrilling adventure, one that, if I didn't know was real, I'd be convinced was fiction. But what's so special about it is that though his story is larger than life, Alex's relatability and vulnerability shine through on every page. A book like this can easily come across as pretentious, but there was none of that to be found. Instead, you're treated to two equally fascinating storylines that are perfectly intertwined.The first is Alex's outward journey -- the powerful lessons from the successful people he seeks out (some of my favorites were Maya Angelou, Jessica Alba, and Quincy Jones), the adventures and missteps in getting to each person, his unwavering dedication to his mission, and perhaps my favorite, the friends and mentors he meets along the way. The insights that actually hit home the most for me were the nuggets of practical advice and challenges from his mentor/best friend Elliott (who, though not as 'famous' is just as incredible as any of the main features in this book).The second storyline, and what makes this book human and whole, is Alex's inward journey. He displays a great deal of self-awareness and reflection and is unafraid to bring the reader along while he gains an understanding of himself, his blind spots, the valuable lessons he learned from his sisters, and the first-hand interaction with the preciousness of life after his father's heartbreaking diagnosis.This book is a page-turner and a coming of age story with universal appeal for sure, but beyond that, it is a lesson in optimism, resilience, and how incredible (and even 'successful') life can be if you have the courage to try.So thank you Alex, for this reminder that is relevant at any age and stage of life. And to anyone reading this review, buy the book, read it, believe it, and share it. It's a story that deserves to be heard.
