Summary

Most people think they're held back by circumstances, but the truth is they're held back by conversations they're having with themselves. Life is 90% mental and 10% physical. Before you quit, your mind quits. Before you succeed, your mind believes. The greatest victories aren't won on the field, in the gym, or in the boardroom—they're won in the battlefield of the mind. Stop feeding your fears. Stop negotiating with your excuses. Start believing that you are capable of more than you've accepted. Your body follows where your mind leads. What's holding you back? You know the answer.
