About this listen

Audie Award Finalist, Personal Development, 2014

Reknowned speaker, educator, author, activist and minister, Eric Thomas is rising to national prominence by delivering a high energy message that tells youth through first hand experience how to live up to their full potential and greatness and by breaking the cycles of crime, hopelessness and despair that many face daily. Known for his engagingly personal approach, his messages are both dynamic and inspiring. When coupled with his own cycle-breaking experience, his blunt essays on reality and remarkable ability to reach even the most jaded of minds, has helped thousands of youth nationwide become peak performers academically, spiritually and personally.

Eric has electrified audiences ranging from Fortune 500 companies to urban educators, collegiate athletic programs and inner-city youth development agencies with the message of his own life's struggles and the principles, insights and strategies he used to overcome them. Eric is no stranger to the ills that plague our communities as he was born in Chicago, IL and raised on the streets of Detroit, MI. His childhood and adolescent years were difficult, and his life struggles and personal identity issues were intensified because like so many, he did not establish a relationship with his biological father until his early thirties.

You can hear the emotion

Really loved it, the book is a good source of positivity and perspective, some parts made me emotional. I wouldn’t say it’s a book that would change my life but it’s still worth every second, every penny. The part where this other dude says songs lyrics at the beginning of every chapter, wtf hahaha this is so ridiculo

Very inspirational

It's amazing. For me personally the book was also great as it summarized certain things I was doing instinctively on my own while reaching my goals. Readying this story and hearing that those things are the actual recipe to success is very motivational. I will keep shooting for the stars :)

ET is definitely inspirational!

If you're a fan of his YouTube videos and never heard his story it's definitely worth the ticket price. It's a story of his life written by him and performed by him. Enjoy!

Excellently produced, 5 star content.

Well told, well structured, fun production value. The only complaint-(ish): you can't speed it up because it ruins the experience. But it's a short listen, so you don't really need to speed it up.

Damn

ET is a legend at what he does no doubt. The book would have gotten a perfect rating but I didn't hear the passion that I'm used to hearing from my man though.

Extremely well read. Difficult to put down.

Never a dull moment. The author made sure that his book would be filled with nuggets from his own life. Good job E.T.
