About this audiobook
Eight proven principles to help you overcome your self-doubt, conquer your fear of the future, reverse negative thoughts about yourself, and hurdle any other obstacles standing between you and your dreams.

In You Have a Brain, Dr. Carson unpacks the eight important parts of T.H.I.N.K. B.I.G.—Talent, Honesty, Insight, Being Nice, Knowledge, Books, In-Depth Learning, and God—and presents the stories of people who demonstrated those things in his life.
Through the advice and real-world examples laid out in these pages, you will learn how to incorporate these T.H.I.N.K. B.I.G. principles into your own life so that you, like Dr. Carson, can embrace an amazing future filled with incredible success.

Well, forty years ago I was a teenager but I still found some very good life advice in Dr. Carson's book. THINK BIG stems from
Talent
Honesty
Insight
Nice
Knowledge
Books
In-depth learning
God
Dr. Carson gives an in-depth explanation of why each of these elements matter.
