Don't Bullsh*t Yourself!

Crush the Excuses that Are Holding You Back

De: Jon Taffer

Narrado por: R.C. Bray, Jon Taffer

Jon Taffer, the popular host of Spike TV's Bar Rescue, doesn't sugarcoat - he tells it like it is. In Don't Bullsh*t Yourself!, he teaches you how to stop fooling yourself and turn your excuses into solutions, to improve your life and business.

As host of SpikeTV's hugely popular Bar Rescue, Jon Taffer gives struggling bars one last chance to succeed with a mixture of business acumen and tough love. Now, he offers his no-nonsense strategy for kicking excuses to the curb, with a dose of raw and refreshing honesty. He'll help you identify your excuses and take practical steps to fix them.

We all love to make excuses; it's only human. It's so much easier to pin the blame on everyone and everything else than to admit our own shortcomings. But when we make excuses, we are lying to ourselves. Jon Taffer is here to shut it down. He argues that if we can identify the real issue behind the excuse and address it in a straightforward way, we have the power to turn our lives around completely.

Doing what you've always done will get you nowhere. Taffer breaks excuses down into six major categories, offering real-life examples that are sure to instruct and inspire, such as:

• Marcus Luttrell, the lone survivor of a SEAL team mission in Afghanistan, who faced his fears one step at a time to avoid almost certain death in Taliban territory.
• Christine King, founder and CEO of Your Best Fit, who, despite being paralyzed in a horrific Jet Ski accident, was able to build a company that shows people how to transform their lives with fitness.
• Mark Itkin, longtime television agent at William Morris Endeavor, who worked his way up from the mailroom, going against the grain to transform the television industry with the creation of Real World and other reality TV megahits.
• Derrick Coleman, the deaf former Seattle Seahawks fullback, who, despite always being picked last in school, was able to overcome his circumstance to turn his deafness into an asset on and off the field.

You are your own worst enemy - if you own your failure, you can fight it. Jon Taffer in Don't Bullsh*t Yourself! gives you a chance to throw away your excuse crutches so you can get back to winning.

Easy read

would have liked to have heard John more. and at first it was weird that thile narrator sounded like John, but by the end it wasn't a distraction

Mandatory read

I wish someone had given me this book back in high school. There are too many people with worthless degrees drifting. We need a resurgence of small business where people own their future and are not slaves to it.

The flat out best book of its kind!

The man has the credentials. The book brings solutions without boring case studies. It’s about doing what needs to be done and telling you solutions to the issues holding you back from doing those things.

I awesome book to get help you get things done..

I awesome book to get help you get things done.. I loved it and i recommend it.

This book is changing my life!!!

Love it! Using it every day, listening over & over until it's my own narrative!!! Thanks John Taffer!!

Incredible

This is a no-nonsense everyday approach to life, and getting things done. The Bullshit Busters will make you think twice about your excuses, it did for me. Very motivational so don't listen before bed!

Another great Taffer book!

Just the kick in the ass I needed after having a bar fail in 2015. I’ve felt a bit lost, not sure what to do next. This was exactly the reminder I needed to get back on the horse and keep going forward. Thanks Jon.

Jon Taffer

I felt tremendously let down when l found out that Jon Taffer only reads the introduction. The book is good but at the same time sometimes things don’t come across as well when they are not told by the right person. If Jon Taffer spent less time reading this one time recording for audible than he did writing it, I think it would be a book I would come back to on a regular basis.

Ah the irony

Am I the only one who finds it hilarious that in a book where Jon talks about overcoming excuses and putting in the work, he only narrates one chapter of the audiobook he wrote. I love Jon and his work but half the reason I bought the audiobook was to listen to him and not someone else

Everyone Needs a Taffer in Their Life

Great read and inspiration. One thing that was said over and over was excuses which resonated with me. I make excuses all the time. The narration was great and he had a stern approach, but I am surprised Taffer didn’t do it himself. Audible books were intended for people like John Taffer or Gordon Ramsey. You’d feel that extra kick in the ass.
