#80 The 7 Simple Questions Leaders Need to Ask with Michael Bungay Stanier

Michael is the Senior Partner at Box of Crayons, a company that helps organizations do less Good Work and more Great Work. He’s the author of several books, including The Coaching Habit and Does More Great Work. Michael has written for or been featured in numerous publications including Business Insider, Fast Company, Forbes, and The Huffington Post. Michael believes that coaching is an essential skill for leaders. But for most busy, overworked managers, coaching employees is done poorly, or not at all. They're just too busy, and it's too hard to change. Michael believes that coaching should become a regular, informal part of a manager’s day so they and their teams can be more effective. At Box of Crayons, Michael and his team of facilitators help time-crunched managers coach in 10 minutes or less.

#79 Diamond Dallas Page: An Unlikely Journey to the Professional Wrestling World Title

An Unlikely Journey of Success and How Diamond Dallas Page is Paying it Forward. Yes, I am a competitive wrestler interviewing a semi-retired professional wrestler. When I came across what Dallas is doing now, I was absolutely blown away. But before we get to that, let me introduce him to those who don’t know who he is. In addition to his two-decade professional wrestling career, Dallas is an actor, motivational speaker, and fitness instructor. He broke into the wrestling world as a business manager in 1988 before signing with WCW, where he went on to become a 3x World Champion. And notice I said semi-retired… he’s been in the ring as recently as 2015 so he’s still at it. That brings me to my next point, Dallas credits his ability to still wrestle to the workout program he developed which he calls DDP Yoga. He originally developed DDP YOGA for athletes like himself who had suffered years of injuries due to high impact sports. He tried yoga for the first time after rupturing two disks in his back during the height of his career. He began mixing in traditional sports therapy and eventually developed DDP Yoga. He’s had clients lose hundred of pounds, overcome debilitating injuries and reclaim their lives. More than anything, I’m excited for you to hear his story and some of the stories of the people whose lives he’s transformed.

#77 Jim Harshaw (solo): The Weirdest (and Most Practical) Episode You’ll Ever Listen to on Goal Setting Strategy

Today I bring you the weirdest but most practical podcast episode you’ll ever listen to. Instead of being a passive listener, you’ll be an active participant in this episode. Here’s why I’m doing this. I was working with a CEO recently and we got to the part of Reveal Your Path where we discussed “Selective Programming.” “Selective Programming” is where you selectively choose the messages that come to you throughout your day… radio, reading, self-talk and the people with whom you surround yourself. He explained that he felt he needed “deselective programming.” He felt he was over-programmed. Like he’s constantly reading books, listening to podcasts and gaining knowledge but he doesn’t take enough time to actually implement what he’s learned. This episode is a response to that discussion. I lead you through a series of questions that, cumulatively, will lead you to clarity around your biggest goal for 2017. It’s unique. It’s different. It will expand your mind. Dive in! Want a list of these questions in a worksheet format? Grab the action plan here... JimHarshawJr.com/Action.

A Plan for Achieving Your 2016 Goals and Crushing It In 2017

The end of 2016 is insight.  Are you where you thought you would be? Are you still looking for more clarity and focus in your life? Thinking that it will come after you just get through this week or this month or this year? Well, I’ve got news for you… it won’t. Not unless you take real, concrete action to MAKE it happen. If you're looking to get clear on your goals and learn how to create a plan to achieve them then join me and 5 other motivated, high performers for to learn a powerful 4-step system starting December 5th. It's called Reveal Your Path and I've now guided dozens of high performers through it- including professional athletes, Olympians, neurosurgeons, MBA’s, college coaches and others - resulting in clarity, focus and balance in their lives so that they can get the right things done and stop trying to be everything to everyone. They’ve been able to start businesses, reconnect with their kids and spouses, find balance, get promotions, lose weight, create new habits and break old ones… and they’ve found the clarity they were looking and are now confident that they’re taking the right action because they’re seeing results like better relationships, increased income and more time in the day. Reveal Your Path isn’t for everyone. But if you’re sitting there feeling like you’re pulled in too many different directions and like you have more potential than you’re currently fulfilling, then Reveal Your Path is for you. Take Isaac, for example, who just finished with my last team, said “This whole process has brought me back to my roots to where I was most successful when I was younger, organized, hungry and driven right out of college. This is getting me back to waking up early, setting goals, and writing things down. I'm understanding where I need to be and where I need to work instead of just trying to survive. Do you feel like Isaac felt-- like you’re just trying to survive? Do you want to again feel organized, hungry and driven? Another recent team member named Irina said just a couple weeks ago to me, “"I feel like I have taken a huge leap forward. Like I went straight from first gear to fourth gear." What would going from first gear to fourth gear feel like in your life? What would that feel like that this very moment? What would that feel like tomorrow morning when you wake up? Where will you be in a year when you’re looking at 2017? Isaac and Irina are both set up to have a great finish to 2016 and an even more amazing 2017. If you’ve heard me talk about RYP before and have considered it but just haven’t taken the leap, I just want to give you this heads up. This December team is the last time I’ll be offering it at this price. So if you’ve been waiting, now is the time to act before it’s too late. Here’s what I want you to do next… go to JimHarshawJr.com/call and grab a time on my calendar to jump on a 15 minute call so that I can give you a taste of the clarity that RYP will give you. The goal of this call will be to help you create an action plan for one area of your life. This is totally free… my hope is that you’ll see such amazing results from a short, 15 minute phone call that you’ll decide to join me. If not, you’ll be better off for just having had the call and I will be too since I’ll be doing what I love-- helping people. Just visit JimHarshawJr.com/call Again that’s JimHarshawJr.com/call.

You have plans on getting to the C-suite or launching a business but ultimate success seems as far away today as ever. You’re at the right place because you can get there from here.  And I can help. Who I Am I’m a speaker, coach, and former Division I All-American wrestler that helps motivated former athletes reach their full potential by getting clarity on what they really want and taking aggressive action to lead their ideal life not just despite their prior failures but because of them. I’m a husband and father of four. And I’m a serial entrepreneur. I’ve launched multiple successful businesses as well as the obligatory failed one. I’ve been the executive director of a non-profit and have raised millions of dollars. I’ve worked in sales. I’ve even been a Division I head coach. While I was born in a blue-collar home I have spent my life surrounded by Olympians, CEO’s and millionaires. Jim Rohn said, “You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.” I’ve been lucky. I’ve learned the habits of successful people and guess what. You’re just like them. I know because I know your type. You’re programmed for hard work, which is a prerequisite for success, but you’ve never been shown how to use what you know to create the life you want with the tools you have. I will show you how. Why You are Here You've worked hard to achieve greatness. You’ve set goals and maybe even set records. You’ve definitely failed and you’ve at some point found yourself questioning if you were on the right track. You need to understand this: You are far more prepared to succeed than those who’ve not tried, competed, struggled and overcome like you have. That’s the value of your education as someone who aims high. You are prepared to be as successful as your wildest dreams will allow. Here I will teach you, with the help of brilliant minds that have been shaped by failure, struggle, and adversity, to be who you want to be. I sense that you want this because you have read this far.
