21 Ways to Achieve Lasting Happiness and Success
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 4 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 book 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 read this book!
