Book of the week

No Excuses! by Bryan Tracy is a motivational book that pushes the reader to stop making excuses and take responsibility for their lives. Tracy argues that success comes down to self-discipline, focus, and perseverance. He provides practical strategies for goal-setting, time management, productivity, and developing positive habits. While sometimes overly simplified, No Excuses! can provide a helpful kick-start for getting out of a rut and working toward your ambitions.

Don’t wish it were easier, wish you were better. Don’t wish for fewer problems, wish for more skills. Don’t wish for less challenge, wish for more wisdom.
