    Stay Thirsty is a candid and inspiring business memoir that blends Mark Haertzen’s sixty-year entrepreneurial journey with "Rocket Wisdom" to show that persistent resilience—not just luck—is the key to surviving the highs and lows of the business world. In the crowded landscape of business literature, it is rare to find a narrative that balances the cold metrics of scaling a company with the warm, often messy reality of a life lived in pursuit of a dream. Mark Haertzen’s memoir, "Stay Thirsty: A Serial Entrepreneur’s Tale of Success & Failure," manages this balance with remarkable transparency. It is an insightful plain-spoken account of what it takes to survive sixty years in the "entrepreneurial trenches."
