Summary
No Excuse The Power of Self-Esteem by Brian Tracy is a book all about how to cultivate the discipline to live the life you want and to become successful in your endeavors. It talks about success, character, responsibility, goals, excellence, courage, work, business, sales, money, time-management, health, family, friendship, and piece of mind. It relates all of these things back to self-discipline.
This book has quotes at the beginning of every chapter which is very nice. It also has regular pauses and spacing which are nice. It reads decently, but it can be a bit dense and overwhelming at times. The author outlines how to get better at each area of your life and tells you what to do. If you follow this book I don’t see how you would not find success. It uses lots of research and devices to help you in your pursuit of discipline. It does a great job of telling you what to do to get at the top of your field in business and have the successful life you want. It really highlights the importance of discipline and why you must cultivate it and practice it daily to become the top achiever that you can be.
I am not going to go into the lessons this book teaches you as that would take quite long and you should just read the book for yourself if you are interested. Just know the basic point is that you need to be disciplined in life and put in a lot of hard work to get where you want.
