About this listen

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “Eric Thomas moves, inspires, encourages, and challenges people to reach their full potential. You Owe You is flat-out brilliant, and he ain’t lied yet!”—Deion Sanders, Coach Prime

No matter your story or your struggle, Eric Thomas—celebrated motivational guru, educator, and problem-solver to many of the top athletes and business leaders—will “help you work harder, discover your real motivation, and crack the code of enduring success” (Ed Mylett, #1 bestselling author of The Power of One More)

If you feel like success is for others, that only certain people get to have their dreams fulfilled, Eric Thomas’s You Owe You is your wake-up call. His urgent message to stop waiting for inspiration to strike and take control of your life is one he wishes someone had given him when he was a teenager—lost, homeless, failing in school, and dealing with the challenges of being a young Black man in America.

Once he was able to break free from thinking of himself as a victim and truly understand his strengths, he switched the script. And now, with this book, Thomas reveals how you, too, can rewrite your life's script. With support, he recognized that his unique gift is being able to capture the attention of all kinds of people in all kinds of settings—boardrooms, locker rooms, churches, classrooms, even the streets—thanks to his wealth of experiences and command of language. Today, Thomas considers himself blessed to speak to an audience that is as large as it is diverse, from the rich and famous to kids struggling in school to young men in prison hoping for a new start.

Thomas’s secrets of success have already helped hundreds of thousands on their journey, but this is his first guide to show you how to start today, right now. These critical first steps include deeply understanding yourself and the world around you, finding your why, accepting that you may have to give up something good for something great, and constantly stretching toward your potential. No matter where you are on your journey toward greatness, you owe it to yourself to become fully, authentically you. And Eric Thomas’s You Owe You can help get you there.

Critic reviews

“The first time I heard ET’s voice, I became an instant fan. If you’ve ever been to church and you hear the pastor speaking, and you think, Man, he must be talking to me, that’s how it is to hear ET speak. It always feels like he’s talking directly to you. He shows up 100 percent every time without asking for anything in return. And it’s not just for me. It’s for everybody. I’ve seen him give his phone number out to kids because he could tell they needed someone to talk to. He does it because it’s his calling. It’s his calling to coach us all in whatever way we need it. It’s his calling to be on our team.”—Chris Paul, from the Foreword

“Eric’s vision will transform perception about your mind and your heart. His words are a gift to people on a path of purpose. You Owe You is full of insight and guidance for those seeking their inner selves.”—Michael B. Jordan

“Eric Thomas moves, inspires, encourages, and challenges people to reach their full potential. You Owe You is flat-out brilliant, and he ain’t lied yet! We’ve got to look in the mirror and identify WHO and WHAT we see, and take full ownership regarding the WHY. Let’s make a commitment today because You Owe You.”Deion Sanders, Coach Prime

Finished with a bang!!

ET obviously has a knack for motivation. The final chapter put a lot into perspective, specifically about generational wealth and how it's not just about money! Thank you for the trickle-down effect that words like these have on husbands, fathers, and their children!

The most powerful book - best this year!

Dr. Eric Thomas has outdid himself. This book is one of the best books I’ve read in 40 years. Self-help books have been my love and I fell in love with this book.

This is book needs to be in everyone’s library. There is so much powerful information for anyone at any status to draw from and take their life on a transformation journey!

I highly advice for people not to be selfish and just help themselves but gift YOU OWE YOU others.

Eric Thomas is the truth!

Reading this book was a delight because I’ve been listening to ET for so long! It’s great hearing his voice and the details of the story is he mentions on so many of his platforms. Five stars I can’t wait to read more of his material.

Great book

I knew a lot about Eric before the book but just hearing his story and where he came from and the things he had to overcome, it’s encouraging. To see the amount of work he put in to get to where he is, I’m not surprised at his success. Great book, great read for anyone at any level who wants to accomplish their goals!!!

Amazing Book!

I love Eric Thomas. I have listened to every S2S episode in existence and inspire to one day meet ET the Hip Hop Preacher. This book is a powerful one and lays down the groundwork of taking back one’s life and learning how to take care of ourselves before we can take care of those we love. The insider details and personal stories shared by ET in the book grasp you from the beginning and you never want to stop listening to this book. Great work Eric!
