About this ebook

In this extremely positive, motivational, and often laugh-out-loud memoir, Jake Paul pauses long enough from his supercharged day-to-day as a nineteen year old social media heartthrob and costar on the Disney Channel series Bizaardvark to share his takes on life, love, fame, and shooting for the moon.

Growing up as a regular kid in Ohio, Jake Paul always knew he wanted to do something big, but he wasn’t sure what that thing was—that is, until he found his calling as one of Vine’s most famous comedians. As a high school sophomore, Jake began making comedy videos with his older brother, Logan, and posting them online. With every carefully staged prank, Jake and Logan’s following grew—and after a few stumbling blocks, Jake finally forged his own way. Eventually, he traded his childhood home in Cleveland for sunny, sparkling Hollywood. In You Gotta Want It, Jake reflects on the path that led him to stardom. From learning the value of a disciplined work ethic, to achieving his goals and aspirations along the way to digital celebrity, to the crazy behind-the-scenes details of his journey as a creator and actor, Jake relates the most hysterical and intimate details of his life thus far—all with the signature humor, honesty, and unstoppable attitude that have won him millions of devoted followers.

Ratings and reviews

Anyone that actually buys this book is an IDIOT. If it's even comprehensible, it's most likely due to JOKE paul hiring a ghost writer, because let's face it, he's not the brightest kid (yes I meant kid). Anyone who buys this is supporting a tone-deaf, egotistical, self-centered, BULLY!!! Google seriously needs to take this book off the shelves already.

I can tell that you came with a Disney flow. Ain't nobody ever heard about your Disney show. CLOUT GANG FOR LIFE. I cant understand some of you actually like this guy. He makes fake rape claims. Then he says that its "bullying" to make fun of house. I just don't get it

You are all meanies Jake pool (burner) is the best he is like God he is the best person ever I'd let him stick his bunge in my booce😂
