Tracy was born in Canada to a family that struggled financially and had very few luxuries in life. He was a high school drop out and started his career as a laborer, working in several physically demanding jobs during his teenage years.
When Brian Tracy turned twenty, he left Canada to travel the world like he had always dreamed of. After driving to North America he got a ship to England and then cycled to France, Spain, and Gibraltar. Tracy also drove through the harsh and sometimes life threatening Sahara Desert with a couple friends, and eventually settled in Johannesburg, South Africa for two years where he worked and lived. After briefly returning to London to work, Tracy travelled through areas of Europe, Turkey, Iran, Pakistan, India, Malaysia, and Singapore. He then spent a further 2 years working and living in Thailand, Asia.
The 8 years of travel and adventure molded the life of Tracy. He worked with the famous Dr. Albert Schweitzer, experienced life and death situations, and trained with martial arts experts to gain his black belt in Shotokan Karate. Tracy has since travelled to more than 80 countries throughout the world.
Brian Tracy is married to his wife Barbara and lives in San Diego with their 4 children.
