NAMED ONE OF THE MOST INSPIRING BOOKS OF 2018 BY INC.

NAMED ONE OF THE BEST STARTUP BOOKS OF ALL TIME BY BOOKAUTHORITY

The Messy Middle is the indispensable guide to navigating the volatility of new ventures and leading bold creative projects by Scott Belsky, bestselling author, entrepreneur, Chief Product Officer at Adobe, and product advisor to many of today's top start-ups.

Creating something from nothing is an unpredictable journey. The first mile births a new idea into existence, and the final mile is all about letting go. We love talking about starts and finishes, even though the middle stretch is the most important and often the most ignored and misunderstood.

Broken into three sections with 100+ lessons, this no-nonsense book will help you:

- Endure the roller coaster of successes and failures by strengthening your resolve, embracing the long-game, and short-circuiting your reward system to get to the finish line.

- Optimize what's working so you can improve the way you hire, better manage your team, and meet your customers' needs.

- Finish
strong and avoid the pitfalls many entrepreneurs make, so you can overcome resistance, exit gracefully, and continue onto your next creative endeavor with ease.

With insightful interviews from today's leading entrepreneurs, artists, writers, and executives, as well as Belsky's own experience working with companies like Airbnb, Pinterest, Uber, and sweetgreen, The Messy Middle will outfit you to find your way through the hardest parts of any bold project or new venture.

My Teen Son’s Favorite Shirt Right Now
This ended up becoming my teen son’s favorite shirt really quickly. He reaches for it all the time because it’s lightweight, comfortable, and easy to wear without feeling stiff or heavy. The material feels soft with a little stretch to it, and it holds up nicely after washing without coming out wrinkled. It also has a clean look to it that works for casual wear but still looks a little more put together than a basic t-shirt. It’s especially nice for warmer weather because the fabric breathes well and doesn’t feel clingy. Overall, this was a really good buy and one of those shirts that gets worn constantly because it just fits and feels good.

Very dark navy.
This is so dark it almost looks black when I received it. Not the color I thought it would be from the picture. Fit was good though for my son that is 6'2" and 275 pounds. Only returned because the color didn't work for family pictures.

Nice fall shirt
The material on this is great. Its soft and smooth. The fit is nice around the chest and stomach, although the sleeves seem a bit too long for me (I'm 5'9 and ordered the large). Its not very thick, so it's a nice early fall, late spring shirt. The only thing I don't like is that the fabric retains wrinkles. If this isn't hung up while warm, it will hold on to wrinkles

Stylish, comfortable long‑sleeve polo
Size: X-Large, Color: Royal Blue, Size: X-Large, Color: Royal Blue
I recently tried out this Lexiart long‑sleeve polo and was pleasantly surprised by how well it balances style and everyday wear. The textured knit gives it enough visual interest (so it doesn’t feel like just another plain jersey shirt), and the slim‑fit design helped create a clean silhouette without being overly tight. The collar and button‑placket feel more polished than a typical tee, which makes it easy to dress up a bit for smart‑casual settings. The fabric is comfortable and breathable enough to wear indoors or layered under a jacket. The length and fit were generally good — the sleeves hit just right and the body length worked for casual wear.
