In 2017, after realizing his heart and body just weren't in it anymore, he decided to walk away. This decision left him feeling a wide array of emotions. Leaving the sport he spent his entire life playing— and without really knowing what to do next— he decided to explore his freedom for the first time. That's when he decided to give everything he owned away to charity, bought a van, and hit the road on a trip across the country that completely changed his life. He traveled for almost two years exploring places all over the country; amazing national parks, beautiful scenic roads, and connecting with incredible like-minded people. But the most profound thing that happened to him during the entire experience— he found himself. Now, he’s on a journey to inspire others to find themselves, through his writing, speaking, and coaching.  He’s the Founder of The Härt Collective, an online community and group coaching program for former athletes, and is currently in the process of writing a book.

Action Plan: https://jimharshawjr.com/ACTION Free Clarity Call: https://jimharshawjr.com/APPLY   Think like Elon Musk How do people like Elon Musk, Richard Branson, and Steve Jobs, get outsized results? How do they think and operate at a level so much higher than everybody else?  How do they get so much done in the same amount of time that we have? Here’s why: their default thinking is at a higher level than almost everyone else.  Most of us question whether or not we can earn enough to retire or put our kids through college, let alone investing billions into colonizing Mars.  While I feel I'm only about 10 steps up my own Mt. Everest— getting to where I'm at now was a huge goal for me. Doing what I love and earning more than I ever have with the flexibility to travel and spend more time with family. It required deep mindset work and oftentimes weird tactics to create breakthroughs and to outthink my own limiting beliefs. It’s the same with these world-class performers. What is it that these world-changers are doing differently? They're stepping back, asking different questions, and operating at a higher level. Today I reveal to you tactics, questions, and mindset hacks that let you outthink your own limiting beliefs. Tune in now and let’s talk about these 11 high-level thinking questions to ask yourself to create powerful clarity and your long-awaited breakthrough in life.
