Short summary

What's it about?

Brian Tracy draws a hard line at eighteen: from that birthday onward, you are one hundred percent responsible for your life, without exception. In this module of his Phoenix Seminar, a canyon separates childhood from adulthood, and most people tumble into the valley of excuses rather than leap. Tolstoy's big white rabbit, Oswald Spengler's theory of challenge and response, and Henry Ford's "never complain, never explain" converge on one creed: if it's to be, it's up to me.

You'll learn:

- Why you can delegate control but never responsibility

- How to unmask your own big white rabbit excuse

- Why rising to small challenges builds empires and people
