About this ebook
Sam Bracken’s backstory would make Dr. Phil turn tail and run. During his childhood, he suffered years of abuse and was even set on fire by a relative. What didn’t kill Bracken made him stronger. And he is now on a mission to bring self-empowerment to others—to realize a life of grit and grace.
This book is about achieving a purpose-driven life. You’ll have to push past failure again and again. And it is also about beating the odds no matter how high they are stacked against you. To be a true leader, you have to start with yourself. In Sam Bracken’s GUTS, you will learn about:
- Mental strength
- Resisting feelings of low self esteem
- Self-empowerment
- Building self confidence
- Living a life of passion
- And, most importantly, what it takes to have grit and grace
“Sam Bracken had no advantages, but went from being a hopeless street kid to a champion college football player. In this insightful book, he illustrates how success in life is less about talent, wealth, or good luck, and more about GUTs. And having GUTs is a choice anyone can make!” —Sean Covey, author of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens
