“The Third Door” by Alex Banayan is one of the most entertaining and compelling books we have ever read.
Filled with adventurous stories and profound pieces of wisdom, The Third Door illustrates the true power of passion, persistence, and having a mission greater than ourselves.
In The Third Door, Alex tells the story of how, at 18-years old, he decided to let go of his pre-med track at USC, and instead, follow his heart towards his mission; to interview the world’s most extraordinary thinkers and discover their secrets to success.
The Third Door takes readers on an incredible journey - from hacking the Price Is Right for start-up money, to chasing Larry King through a grocery story, to booking interviews with some of the world’s most impactful thinkers. Interviews with Bill Gates, Maya Angelou, and Steve Wozniak, as well as a collection of others revealed one thing they all have in common; they all took the Third Door.
Now, “What is The Third Door?, you may ask.
As Alex explains,
Life, business, success… it’s just like a nightclub.
There are always three ways in.
There’s the First Door: the main entrance, where 99 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, crack open the window, sneak through the kitchen—there’s always a way.”
