About this audiobook

New York Times Bestseller and Wall Street Journal Bestseller! Bar Rescue's Jon Taffer presents a new guide to getting what you want in life and business--to stop making excuses so you can get back to winning.

During his many years as an entrepreneur, consultant, and star of the Paramount Network's hit show Bar Rescue, Jon Taffer has witnessed the destruction that results when people bullsh*t themselves. Excuses are the root cause of nearly every business and personal problem, but fortunately, Jon knows how to fix your excuse habit for good.

This book is almost as good as having Jon in your face on Bar Rescue, telling you the hard truths you've been avoiding. Don't Bullsh*t Yourself! is Jon Taffer's brutally honest, no-nonsense guide to help you kick those excuses to the curb. If you can stop bullsh*tting yourself and address your real issues, you will gain the power to turn your life around completely.

Taffer breaks excuses down into six major categories, illustrating them with real-life examples such as Marcus Luttrell, the lone survivor of a SEAL team mission in Afghanistan who barely escaped Taliban territory, and Christine King, founder and CEO of Your Best Fit, who, despite being paralyzed in a horrific boating accident, went on to build a successful fitness company. These inspiring stories, combined with Taffer's own experiences, will give you the confidence to identify and face your own excuses head-on. 

It's Taffer Time! Time to stop bullsh*tting yourself and start crushing it!

The all that the author of "Don't bullsh*t yourself" does, is bullsh*its its readers. Packaged into bundle of successful stories the book doesn't teach much. He starts with a idea of not being scared of failures and it makes sense. But who doesn't know this basic thing? We all understand that failing is good if you learn a lesson. But when you rent for living and have the entire family on your shoulders I would expect to get more value than just "stocking stuffer" success stories for his book. Common, I don't have time for this kind of "bullsh*t" preaching

I watched him today on Dr Phil ( great show) and am buying his book. Mr. Taffer opened my eyes to the possibility that I too have been making excuses for 20 years! I have been afraid to drive on highways. It has been terrible to always make different arrangements or excuses. I believe I am quite capable but have convinced myself it would be dangerous. I truly hope by reading this I can make the change. Thank you for giving me the strength today to have even written this…it is ( I hope) the beginning of a new way to view my problem and eliminate my excuses!!!
