Technical knowledge alone isn't enough - increase your software development income by leveling up your soft skills Early in his software developer career, John Sonmez discovered that technical knowledge alone isn't enough to break through to the next income level - developers need "soft skills" like the ability to learn new technologies just in time, communicate clearly with management and consulting clients, negotiate a fair hourly rate, and unite teammates and coworkers in working toward a common goal.

Few novels have had as profound an impact on American culture as On the Road. Pulsating with the rhythms of 1950s underground America, jazz, sex, illicit drugs, and the mystery and promise of the open road, Kerouac's classic novel of freedom and longing defined what it meant to be "beat" and has inspired generations of writers, musicians, artists, poets, and seekers who cite their discovery of the book as the event that "set them free".

Publisher's Summary
Web developers who work as employees of companies are limited in their potential earnings and subject to all of the typical issues of working for someone else. I've been there and done that. I wanted more income, more freedom, and more variety of projects. Remote contract-based web developer work offers all of these benefits to programmers who are willing to run their own businesses and work hard.
I've created and tested a unique strategy to build a very high-revenue business. It's the only method I've found that allows reasonably skilled developers to earn mid-six-figure incomes. It isn't rocket science, and you don't have to be a rock-star level programmer to do it.
In this book I explain everything I did to build my $450,000 a year web developer business. I work mostly from a small, comfortable office (by choice), but I often get away to very nice destinations and take my work with me - one of the best perks of being in charge of my career. If you are a relatively new developer, I truly believe that you can build the core skills to accomplish what I have done. For more seasoned developers, I have no doubt that you can use my strategy to earn the income that you dream about.

No actionable items
there is a lot of discussion about author's life, work and opinions, but no actionable advice that you can begin applying today, no research, statistics or anything other than anecdotal. Too many of these kinds of books out there
