The Birth of a Unicorn is a surprising package. I was intrigued by the author’s bio when I was invited to read an early review copy. The author’s life experiences, tenacity, and ability to work through thick and thin, make this a truly inspiring book. The author being Evernotes first 8 employees was a point that piqued my interest. In fact, she was one of the founder employees, you may say. I am a big fan of Evernote and using it since 2014. We learn from our life experiences, and no lesson is too small. In times like these, this book is a powerful motivator to remember to pray and persist. A must-read for all those who believe in learning by doing.

Birth of a Unicorn: The Six Basic Steps to Success by Heather Wilde is a surprise package.I didn’t know what to expect when I started to areas the book.

Is success as easy as the six steps she describes?

Well, you won’t be surprised if I tell you that you probably already know all the six steps, but dont know how to trust the process. The author talks about her marriage, early struggles with mental health struggles, the twin tower attack, and the struggling American economy. She ends by giving her readers hope.
The world is one big family, and we just need to accept, learn, believe, and persist. The book is not preachy, considering it quite heavy reading parts.

I enjoyed getting a bird eyes view of a successful note-taking cum personal secretary app the Evernote. Thats, the software. I jotted down my notes on the phone. Then opened my laptop to continue writing without emailing myself back and forth /the sync is effortless, and I still have my notes from 2014 on the Evernote app.

When I started blogging in 2014, I saved many articles on Evernote to refer to when I would write later. I never thought about the silent group of people making all this possible. Now I know and am grateful I read this book.
