Publisher's summary

Most people think success comes from good luck or enormous talent, but many successful people achieve their accomplishments in a simpler way: through self-discipline. Brian Tracy knows this firsthand. He didn’t graduate from high school, and after working for a few years as a laborer, he realized he had limited skills and a limited future. But through the power of self-discipline, he changed his life, achieving success in sales and marketing, investing, real-estate development, and management consulting. He has consulted to more than 1,000 companies, given motivational speeches and seminars to more than four million people in 40 countries, and written 45 books.

No Excuses! shows you how you can achieve success in all three major areas of your life:

• Your personal goals: self-discipline can help you realize that you are responsible for your success and shows you how persistence really does pay off.
• Your business and money goals: self-discipline can make you a better leader and a better manager, help you close more sales and make more money, improve your time-management and problem- solving abilities, and make you more effective and successful at work.
• Your overall happiness: self-discipline can help you be happier, healthier, and more physically fit, and it can help you in your marriage and your relationships with your children and friends.

Each of the 21 chapters in this audiobook shows you how to be more disciplined in one aspect of your life, with end- of-chapter exercises to help you apply the “no excuses” approach to your own life. With these guidelines, you can learn how to be more successful in everything you do—instead of wistfully envying others who you think are just “luckier” than you. A little self-discipline goes a long way...so stop making excuses and listen to this audiobook!

Brian Tracy, His experiences are the motivation,

It is POSSIBLE!!!!

Fantastic, unique perspective on discipline

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Absolutely. Brian Tracy does a fantastic job of showing his readers why having and exerting discipline is so important.

What did you like best about this story?

Brian Tracy addresses the need for discipline in every aspect of your life - business, finances, personal life, relationships and raising kids. He not only shows you why having discipline in these categories is so important - he shows you step by step what actions need to be taken to achieve that discipline. This is truly an eye opening, engaging book that can be used by anyone, at any stage in their life. He also touches on the Law of Attraction, though I don't believe he directly refers to it as such.

Have you listened to any of Brian Tracy’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

His performance was excellent. The reading of the book was in a very natural, conversant tone that makes it clear that he is an excellent public speaker and presenter. His tone varies based on the content, and portrays a level of seriousness when he needs to drive a point home, and joviality when drawing the listener in. I would certainly listen to his audiobooks in the future.

Any additional comments?

Overall, this is a fantastic book for anyone who struggles with excuses and lack of self-discipline in their life. Tracy's approach is both no-nonsense and empathetic. He knows that it is not easy to change your behaviors - but he adamantly believes that you can make your life absolutely anything that you want it to be by applying his methods. You truly get the sense that he cares what becomes of your life, and wants the best for you. Listen to it.

It is comparable to all other self help books, however the principles discussed were very simple but yet powerful. It entices change right away.
