#374 Money Mindset: Risk, Failure, and Self-Imposed Consequences with Jerremy Newsome -------- Action Plan: https://jimharshawjr.com/ACTION Free Clarity Call: https://jimharshawjr.com/APPLY   What’s a movie that is so good it actually changed your life? For Financial Mentor Jerremy Newsome, it’s “Forrest Gump.” And just like Forrest, of course, he also invested in Apple… at six years old! Jerremy Newsome’s mission and calling in life is to enrich lives through mentally liberating financial education.  His love for business started at the age of six after watching the award-winning film, “Forrest Gump.” At such a young age, he convinced his father to match his investment deposit for some Apple stock back in 1995— just like Forrest and Lieutenant Dan! In 2014, he established Real Life Trading— a company designed to make trading accessible to everyone. This has allowed him to assist and enrich tens of thousands of lives while also growing the company organically to a seven-figure business.  But this is NOT an interview about stocks.  This episode is about taking risks. This is about your mindset toward success— but more importantly— this is about your mindset about life-changing failures and how to handle them.  Be inspired by Jerremy Newsome’s Success Through Failure story.

#371 A Success Perspective: How to Handle Life When You Don't Get What You Want -------- Action Plan: https://jimharshawjr.com/ACTION Free Clarity Call: https://jimharshawjr.com/APPLY   There are things in your life that you didn’t want but may be exactly what you need. My mission for this podcast is to reveal the true nature of success— that failure is a necessary step on the path to success for you. We don't seek it out. We don't want it. But it is part of success. And that’s life! We don’t always get what we ask for but often it’s what we actually need.  It’s not exactly an easy idea to reconcile to, I know, BUT once you learn how to shift your mindset, the adversities, challenges, and setbacks that you’ll face in life will turn into one opportunity after another! Join me in this episode as I translate a viral poem into a usable and functional action item that will crystalize the power of failure to open new opportunities for growth and success despite— and sometimes even because of— failure.

#370 Implicit Bias: How Our Brain Unconsciously Leads Us Astray and What To Do About It -------- Action Plan: https://jimharshawjr.com/ACTION Free Clarity Call: https://jimharshawjr.com/APPLY   In the Reveal Your Path coaching program, there’s a concept we call the “Environment of Excellence.” These are the people, messages, and mindsets that influence us— the very same factors that shape our “Implicit Biases.”  So much of what we talk about here on Success Through Failure is about mindset— unlocking the power of our mind, revealing limiting beliefs, and the unconscious wiring that often controls us and our actions.   Oftentimes we fail because we tell ourselves a story that we're not good enough, or not smart enough, or not capable enough— or maybe others tell us that story… Maybe it's through their body language, their facial expressions, how they talk to us, or maybe even what we see in the media.  This is all part of the messaging that we receive from our environment that shapes our unconscious beliefs about ourselves and others. Social Psychologist and Morehouse College professor, Dr. Bryant Marks, joins us in this episode to reveal the hidden secrets that are stored inside of our minds: about who we are, who others are, and the resulting unconscious actions that we take without even knowing it. I want you to listen to this interview with the goal of better understanding your unconscious, automatic mind, and the actions you take that affect both you and others that influence our society today.

Action Plan: https://jimharshawjr.com/ACTION Free Clarity Call: https://jimharshawjr.com/APPLY If there's a "cheat code" that can help you create success at anything, how would you maximize it? It’s NOT an antidote to failing— because failure is a step on the path to success— but using this cheat code will bring change that will lead you to your success.   I had an intriguing conversation with a client recently… In the past few years, he went from a guy who didn't really work out much to working out regularly. He even took on the challenge of doing the Murph workout, which he successfully completed. A year later, he committed to doing the Murph again, but due to work and other commitments, he trained less yet, surprisingly, he completed the Murph even faster! How is that possible?! In this episode, we’re going to talk about the “cheat code” that my client used and how you can implement the same concept to transform your life and performance in any area: your career, fitness, or otherwise.  After listening to this, 1) you’d be more willing to do the thing you fear because of fear of failure and 2) you’d be more resilient in the face of failure.

Action Plan: https://jimharshawjr.com/ACTION Free Clarity Call: https://jimharshawjr.com/APPLY “Easy and elite were never meant to coexist.” And if you wish to lead a life as an elite performer, like Tom Ryan, then you have to be prepared to embrace “chosen suffering.” Tom Ryan is the Head Coach of the Ohio State University Wrestling Team. It was his guidance and leadership that led the team to unprecedented heights by winning the 2015 NCAA National Championship, among many milestones. He also had a decorated wrestling career as a 2x NCAA All-American, taking second in the 1991 NCAA Tourney and third in 1992 for the University of Iowa. Tom embraced “chosen suffering” to become elite in what he does. This became the inspiration for his book, "Chosen Suffering: Becoming Elite In Life And Leadership."  It wasn’t until he and his wife, Lynette, suffered the sudden death of their five-year-old son, Teague, that they encountered “unchosen suffering” in a way they never wished. In this fire, they found their faith and a process to push through the pain.  Tom joins us in this episode of the Success Through Failure podcast to share his passion for transforming ordinary lives into elite champions through his stories of unbelievable courage, strength, love, and faith.

Listen to the fascinating "story behind the story" that you've never heard before. Against all odds on a gridiron in South Bend, Indiana, Daniel "Rudy" Ruettiger, in 27 seconds, carved his name into history books as perhaps the most famous graduate of the University of Notre Dame.  As fans cheered “RU-DY! RU-DY!” he sacked the quarterback in the last 27 seconds of the only play in the only game of his college football career. He is the only player in the school's history to be carried off the field on his teammates' shoulders. In 1993, his life story was immortalized in the blockbuster film, “Rudy.” Written and produced by Angelo Pizzo and David Anspaugh, the award-winning team behind “Hoosiers.” Today, Rudy entertains international corporate audiences as a sought-after motivational speaker with a unique, passionate, and heartfelt style of communicating. He reaches school children, university students, and professional athletes with the same enthusiasm, portraying the human spirit that comes from his personal experiences of adversity and triumph.
