We will all come across opportunities to change our lives. Recognizing and acting upon them is key. We have what it takes. Sometimes we need support to see that. Today’s guest shares how harnessing your greatness to do what is hard will ultimately lead to unimaginable success.

Rock Thomas is the world’s number one whole life success expert. He is the host of the top-rated #IAmMovement Podcast, a bestselling author, and motivational speaker with over 30 years of experience in personal development and coaching. Rock has studied one on one with such legends as Tony Robbins, Jack Canfield, Dr. Wayne Dyer, and more. Over 100 million people have watched his Goalcast video.

Rock’s story involves some pivotal crossroads. His early years were full of hard work. Rock found ways to embrace the lessons he learned and develop his work ethic. It wasn’t something he could do on his own though. Rock credits finding the right support and advice as the most important part. Now he helps others the way others helped him.

As a coach, Rock helps people see the part of themselves that needs to be awakened. There is greatness in everyone. We just often need someone to hold up a mirror so we can see it. Once that’s done, you can accept who you are and harness that to succeed.

Quotes

“I think that’s a secret. Just chip away at things. Have a north star and do a little bit every day.” [16:59]

“If people will do what is difficult, life will be easy. If you keep on doing what’s easy, life will get difficult.” [19:46]

“If you look for the greatness and the opportunities that are happening right now, the world is never going to be the same. It’s going to shift. So you gotta start thinking how you’re going to adapt.” [28:07]

“The mind will usually say no first. Say yes and figure things out later. Don’t let the hows stop you.” [35:53]
