Summary

"You Owe You is full of insight and guidance for those seeking their inner selves。"--MICHAEL B。 JORDAN

No matter your story or your struggle, Eric Thomas--celebrated motivational guru, educator, and problem-solver to many of the top athletes and business leaders--will "help you work harder, discover your real motivation, and crack the code of enduring success" (Ed Mylett, #1 bestselling author of The Power of One More

If you feel like success is for others, that only certain people get to have their dreams fulfilled, Eric Thomas's You Owe You is your wake-up call。 His urgent message to stop waiting for inspiration to strike and take control of your life is one he wishes someone had given him when he was a teenager--lost, homeless, failing in school, and dealing with the challenges of being a young Black man in America。

Once he was able to break free from thinking of himself as a victim and truly understand his strengths, he switched the script。 And now, with this book, Thomas reveals how you, too, can rewrite your life's script。 With support, he recognized that his unique gift is being able to capture the attention of all kinds of people in all kinds of settings--boardrooms, locker rooms, churches, classrooms, even the streets--thanks to his wealth of experiences and command of language。 Today, Thomas considers himself blessed to speak to an audience that is as large as it is diverse, from the rich and famous to kids struggling in school to young men in prison hoping for a new start。

Thomas's secrets of success have already helped hundreds of thousands on their journey, but this is his first guide to show you how to start today, right now。 These critical first steps include deeply understanding yourself and the world around you, finding your why, accepting that you may have to give up something good for something great, and constantly stretching toward your potential。 No matter where you are on your journey toward greatness, you owe it to yourself to become fully, authentically you。 And Eric Thomas's You Owe You can help get you there。

*Thank you Penguin Random House for the complimentary audiobook!I was looking for a nonfic/self-help/motivation type book and came across You Owe You。 From the title, I already liked the message it put forth。 Narrated by the author, it’s very much a motivational book。 It felt very repetitive and a bit too long but the main messages got across。 I enjoyed learning about Thomas’s life and career and pulled a few quotes/ideas that I found helpful in my own life。 Definitely recommend the audiobook ro *Thank you Penguin Random House for the complimentary audiobook!I was looking for a nonfic/self-help/motivation type book and came across You Owe You。 From the title, I already liked the message it put forth。 Narrated by the author, it’s very much a motivational book。 It felt very repetitive and a bit too long but the main messages got across。 I enjoyed learning about Thomas’s life and career and pulled a few quotes/ideas that I found helpful in my own life。 Definitely recommend the audiobook route for this one if you want to get that pumped up feeling that motivational speeches aim for。 。。。more

i might be 。。。well i am not sure what word to use there?? but i feel 。。。being a white (i check the box "Caucasian"。 let me tell you the story of what (not the best speller, so i did have to make sure how to even spell it properly) i just saw on Microsoft Bing search engine。 "The Caucasian race is an obsolete racial classification of human beings based on a now-disproven theory of biological race。 。。" (i found out that it is actually "Wikipedia", where this info comes from。 i am guessing that Microsoft Bing is using it and giving them credit) apparently i should be saying "White American"。 i am curious when voting and other websites will come to this day and age and change that color?on the voting section or whatever u wanna call it。 i kind of hate that, if i am honest 。。。i personally prefer 。。。that lots of people 。。。i might have been birthed into a family, i might have their blood running through my veins。 but i think because i have interacted, dealt with, come in contact with 。。。all those women, men, kids 。。。whatever they have made me who i am 。。。i cannot say that i am only this or that。 i am who i am 。。。because of the ones who came before me 。。。my ancestors 。。。the ones who came from Italy, Germany, Scot Irish, and any other just folks that are a part of me and my family members 。。。whatever they might have come from 。。。i got here because of them and i am truly thankful for where i am 。。。that i am continuing to achieve and not be where i once was 。。。but keep walking。 keep failing。 keep trying。 keep going。 i am not the best of what i am meant to be 。。。but i am trying daily to be a better person。 i will continue to try and will continue no matter what。 that is the point and narrowing me down to a color is so not the point。) person 。。。that it doesn't mean you have to be of the African American to read this book。 i pray you know what i mean there and i don't mean any disrespect of any sort。 i think all folks can read books and i don't believe that Dr。 Eric did narrow it to one certain race 。。。what or whom it might feel needed in this kind of knowledge, suggestions, help, self-help, a big brother kind of help。 u know??! i think we all need a KICK IN THE BUTT every once in a while。 and i am truly thankful for the opportunity or chance to have read this book。 be it official or an "uncorrected proof" kind of read。 sometimes you need that cheerleader or preacher (not meaning that this person has to have a degree or whatever to be that feeling for you, for you to get that feeling or go on 。。。a little push, or big push, whatever u might need。 go on 。。。 take that step forward)"The difference between those who succeed and those who fail: not taking advantage of opportunities。""A real friendship is not about what you can get。 Real friendship is about making sacrifices and investing in people to help them improve their lives。" (Not to toot my own horn but this has always been my goal。 i have always wanted what is best for others。 sometimes i forget myself, i need what is best for ME, MYSLEF and I。 point being that i need friends who feel or want the same for me 。。。not looking for themselves。 in the past i have had many friends, and sadly pretty much ALL of them were out for themselves。 now i get why those friendships didn't last。 i am trying to better than within myself and come to grips with the lose (the connection) from those relationships。 i think we all want friends。 close friends。 those ones we have similarities with。 i mean we have our husbands, our families, siblings。 but nothing is better than that friendship kind of closeness。 u know??!)point is: i don't think this is a book for any one in particular。 i think that you just need the reasoning to wish to move forward, more wishes to have goals that will help you in the steppingstones moving forward in your daily life and existence here on the world。 helpful。 it is a nice kind "kick in the butt", one we can all use and take to heart。 lean an ear 。。。 take a listen。 go on。 。。。more
