The recent tirade by the Louisville head women’s basketball coach about “every kid gets a trophy” is the latest public lashing of society. It’s an unfortunate irony. The very coach whose job is to teach young athletes accountability is blaming someone else for his own failure as a coach. This is a coach who played a team made of players of the same generation and in the same recruiting pool yet he blames society instead of himself. I’m a father of four and have been a Division I head coach so I fully understand the challenges of mentoring youth. It’s easier to blame society than to take responsibility. The fact is that it’s developmentally appropriate for young people to struggle with failure, adversity, obstacles, and setback. To be honest, you and I struggle with it too. It’s part of a coaches job (as well as parents, teachers and the rest of us) to teach them how to deal with it. == It’s become a badge of honor to complain about kids getting participation trophies. It’s like when our grandparents told us they walked to school in the snow uphill both ways. Everyone wants to think that life was tougher when they were a kid. I grew up in a tough, blue-collar community outside of Pittsburgh in the ‘80s. We hunted, watched the Pittsburgh Steelers and generally did tough things. And everybody got a trophy. I was terrible at baseball. I got a trophy. I was terrible at football. I got a trophy. I was terrible at cross country. I got a trophy. Why not? In baseball, I stepped to the plate regardless my inability to hit the ball. In football, despite my being the smallest kid on the team, I stepped onto the field. In cross country, I was one of the slowest runners but was exhausted at the end of each race. Mind you, had to show up and give effort to receive it. I didn’t get the championship trophy or the MVP trophy or the most improved trophy (those came later). But I did get a participation trophy. There’s a difference. You get a participation trophy for stepping outside of your comfort zone. You get a participation trophy for trying something new. You get a participation trophy for taking a risk. It’s the process that is rewarded. I ran a 1/2 marathon last year and got a participation medal for the same reason. Warren Buffett, John Wooden and Michael Phelps teach us to focus on the process, not the outcome. It’s the process that creates champions, leaders and productive members of society. Even Carol Dweck, the often quoted psychologist and author of the bestselling book “Mindset,” believes that kids should be rewarded for improvement or team spirit. Those who blame “every kid gets a trophy,” have flawed reasoning that a participation trophy is the reason kids play sports. It’s not. Research tells us as that kids participate in sports because their friends do it, because they want to be part of something and because they feel they’re good at it. Not because they want a participation trophy. When I was young and gravitated toward the sport of wrestling, it was because my friends were doing it. I was terrible at first. I got a participation trophy. Seventeen years later I was crowned one of the best in America. I got a bigger trophy. Most of the hundreds of trophies I won are now in a trash dump somewhere. They are not the reason I endured nearly two decades of pain and suffering. == If you question the fact that it’s wrong to give a participation award, remember that everyone gets a participation award in the real world too. It’s called a paycheck. If you don’t show up, you don’t get one at all. If you just show up, you get a smaller one. If you do really well, you get a bigger one. Just like youth sports. Even the coach in this video who lost and blamed someone else got a paycheck (probably bigger than yours or mine). Listen, I know that as coaches and teachers and parents and employers, we want to be handed a generation of youth who are fully prepared. However, it is our job is to prepare them for the next step. If they’re not the athletes or students or employee that you wanted, coach them up or go recruit different ones. Stop passing the buck. Stop blaming society. Accept your responsibility in shaping our youth.

A blueprint for parents who want to raise confident, resilient children. Jessica Lahey is an educator, writer, and speaker. And she’s the author of the New York Times bestselling book “The Gift of Failure: How the Best Parents Learn to Let Go So Their Children Can Succeed.” Reading from her website about the book it says, “In the tradition of Paul Tough’s book How Children Succeed and Wendy Mogel’s The Blessing of a Skinned Knee, this groundbreaking manifesto focuses on the critical school years when parents must learn to allow their children to experience the disappointment and frustration that occur from life’s inevitable problems so that they can grow up to be successful, resilient, and self-reliant adults.” We all want those things for our children. And the more you teach something, the better you become at it so you just may become more successful, resilient and self-reliant yourself.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Andrea and Richard- my first dual interview on Success Through Failure -- are the premier experts on overcoming failure, rejection, and fear of the word, ‘no.’ They believe that courage is the single most important virtue on which everything else in life is built. And that when people build their courage, anything is possible. They co-wrote the best-selling book titled “Go For No: Yes Is The Destination, No Is How You Get There.” Through the dialogue of the two main characters, they have created an entertaining story that presents the key concepts essential to success in sales and anything else in life. They are living their dream of speaking and writing, traveling the country and delivering their message to tens of thousands of people and changing lives with their Go for No! message.

Bouncing back and forth between his father and his mother, Steve and his twin brother ultimately settled into the single parent lifestyle, being raised mostly by their mother. Steve has witnessed first hand the destruction that addiction, violence, and incarceration can do to a family…but the experiences weren’t all bad. He believes now that it was the storms in life that have ultimately brought him to a place of purpose, peace, and hope. Finding his way in life through sport and the guidance of a few key people, he ended up at the top public university in the nation, the University of Virginia, where he found himself wrestling for the national championship in front of 15,000 people and millions more watching on ESPN.

Nate grew up in a sheltered lifestyle and did not participate in organized sports until age 24 when he first became exposed to MMA. After a period of self-discovery, he rejected his Jehovah's Witness upbringing, which he later characterized as a cult who control their members 24 hours a day. This led to expulsion from the Jehovah’s Witness faith and caused him to become alienated from his family and former friends. He began to associate with others outside of the church and along the way began to train in mixed martial arts fighting. He landed a spot on the Ultimate Fighter tv show and eventually made his way to Team Quest in Oregon. He fought 22 professional fights, winning 18. He’s now an entrepreneur with his hands in multiple businesses.

In the fall of 2014, I gave a TED Talk titled “Why I Teach My Children to Fail.” Instantly, I had people asking me to speak to their company, organization or team. “Failure” was the topic that resonated most. When I launched the podcast last year, I had intended on failure being a part of my message but I’ve come to realize that failure IS my message. We all experience it. It hurts. It leads to a lowering your goals, settling for less and letting go of your dreams. My mission is to help you normalize failure and use it to boost you to greater levels of success like it has for the great ones… Michael Jordan, Richard Branson, Steve Jobs . You, my audience, has told me that you enjoy learning not only the stories and habits of successful people but also how they were able to fail and still find success.   Because of this, I am changing the name of the podcast from Wrestling with Success to Success Through Failure. The name change will more clearly define to those who come across the show that the core message is failure. It will also alleviate any confusion that this show is about wrestling. While in many ways, I define my identity as a wrestler, this show is much bigger than that. The guests will remain primarily former athletes because I believe the athlete’s experience provides a powerful context from which to view the value of failure. The format of the show will be mostly unchanged too. I hope you like the evolution of the show and will share this with your social circles so that we can help others turn their eyes up after failure and use it as a stepping stone on their path to success. et's connect:  Website | Facebook | Twitter About Your Host Jim Harshaw My name is Jim Harshaw.

Anthony's clients refer to him as “Truckstop”. It was a nickname he earned while playing college and NFL football because he attacked people and hit them so hard they were stopped in their tracks…but he just kept moving. The name stuck because that’s now the way he attacks life. He attacks head on and just won’t stop. It’s ironic because he spent the first 14 years of his life being told he was worthless and would never amount to anything while experiencing hell in foster care. Anthony was the first and only one in his family to earn a college degree. He married his high school sweetheart, played in the NFL, built and run his own successful business, and has trained thousands of people ranging from professional athletes to stay at home moms to get healthy and strong. He’s now an author, a consultant for billion dollars a year companies, father of 3, and he speaks across the globe to help people change their lives.

Download the action plan from every episode here: http://jimharshawjr.com/action/ Today is another episode of Sudden Success. These are shorter episodes that you can listen to in about 10 minutes or less. In this episode, I discuss how to stay focused at work and at home so that you can get more done and have better work life balance. I’ve identified 18 ways to stay focused and share my top 3 on this episode. Grab the other 15 by going to http://jimharshawjr.com/action/ Remember how clear your goals were when you were competing? Well, for years after I was done competing, I struggled to get clear on my goals again and even how to stay focused on them- day in, day out- with all the distractions that come with life. It was discouraging and I felt myself slipping into mediocrity. I knew I could outwork anyone but I didn't know what I was supposed to be outworking them on! Then, after interviewing some of the highest performers on the planet--- Olympians, CEO's, billionaires--- I discovered how they do it. I discovered 18 powerful and sometimes weird tactics that they use to stay focused at work and at home-- focused on the right things-- so that they could live a balanced life and achieve the success they want. Shoot, if you started using just one of them today you'll get more done in the next 8 hours. Not tomorrow or next week. These will work TODAY. Immediately. I guarantee it... it's like magic but these are real solutions to what people like you and me want. Clarity on the right goals. Staying focused on them. This is a blueprint on how to achieve like you know you should be achieving because the success that you want comes down to being able to take focused action. Experts say that most people only get about 90 minutes of actual work done in a typical eight hour day. Isn’t that crazy? But if you think about it, how much do you get done in an hour of hyper-focused work before a deadline? Probably three to four times as much, right? So, let’s say you’re already twice as efficient as most people. Implementing these will help you get at least two more productive hours in your day. That’s ten hours a week… fourteen if you count weekends. What could you accomplish if you had an additional fourteen hours this week? Even if you only get half that, seven hours, what would you do with an extra seven hours? I use at least 4 of these every day and have used all of them at some point... now I'm able to stay focused while at work so that I can get 50-100% more done each day, I'm more present when I'm home with my wife and four kids so that I can have a stronger relationship with my family and I'm able to achieve goals I never even dreamed possible- like being chosen to give a TED Talk (at one of the biggest TED events in the world), launching a podcast and running a half marathon---- all while having a full time job that includes regular travel and working nights and weekends. You're going to find solutions on this list you never even dreamed of and you’re going to discover that by using these tactics that you’ll have the time to get the things done that you want.

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.

Learn more here: http://www.RevealYourPath.com You hear everyone these days talking about mindset and toughness and grit…  well guess what?  You and I are former athletes. We checked that box.  Now what? How do we apply our mindset to attack clearly defined goals- like we had when we were competing- to do the things we know we can do? You and I know we can outwork and outperform anyone but often times we don't. You’re a former athlete and you’re reading this email so I imagine you enjoy challenges…  but what are the right challenges? What are the right goals? What's the next step? The next goal? Not just an arbitrary goal but one that get you out of bed in the morning. You want a clear framework for setting goals-- the right goals for you-- and achieving them. If I were to guess, being average scares the crap out of you. You don't want to "play to the level of your competition." You want to be significant. Or MORE significant. You want to crush it in your job. You want to be an awesome dad. You want to be fit. You want to make more money. You want a clear path of what to do in the next year. The next 5 years. Shoot, what to do today and this Saturday morning when you wake up early and get that one hour of time to yourself! What are you working towards? You want a better life and to find the motivation to create it. And the blueprint on how to be consistent. Your priorities are your family and your work but you feel like you're short changing one or the other. You just need more time in the day. If you could just get focused and stay focused. Like most people, you find yourself easily distracted or lacking consistency. Sure, you have fears. You have self-doubt. Welcome to the club. The club includes billionaires, astronauts, CEOs, leaders, NYT Best-selling authors, professional athletes. Part of the process of getting “there”-- wherever “there” is for you-- means understanding that failure and struggle are part of the process but-- just like when you were an athlete-- not letting that beat you down. These billionaires, astronauts, CEO’s and leaders… Do you want to know how they achieve anyway? The tools? The tactics? The things they do everyday? I’ve created a program that delivers exactly that. It’s called Reveal Your Path. In addition to tools and tactics, you figure out what drives you. I’ll ask you the right questions-- tough questions--  to help you figure out the right answers. It will help you get clarity on your goals. I’ll help you get laser focused on the right things. You will find more time in the day… up to 2 hours more. Clarity leads to focus and you are at your best when you are focused. No more chasing the next shiny object that turns out to just be a distraction. You’ll learn to live by your principles. You’ll learn what those principles are (they’re already inside of you and I have the questions that will pull them out)! When you figure that out it’s easy to identify the goals that excite you. I know that you love to learn but you don’t have enough time to read the books you want to read now or do the things you want to do. I know that you need a program that fits into your already busy life. Something that you can do on your own terms. That’s why I’ve structured Reveal Your Path to be done on your own terms so that it doesn’t take away from your life but adds to it. We’ll work together through a once-a-week group coaching call. You’ll have access 24/7 to a private members-only Facebook Community. You might be saying, "I don't need others. I can do this on my own." Right-- I get it-- we're men (at least most of those getting this email are). We don't stop to ask directions. We don’t talk to our wives or girlfriends about our feelings. This isn’t about “feelings.” It’s about doing what Olympians do-- I just had two Olympians complete the program. I had a guy with an MBA and successful company complete the program. A neurosurgeon. An MIT grad. College head coaches. This is what high performers do. They surround themselves not with average people but with people who are shooting for the moon and can help them do the same and stay focused on the right things. I know you read books and listen to podcasts. I know you feel like you've heard or read it all. Your seeking the answer to the question, "What do successful people do that I don't do?" You know what they do but it's not real yet in your life because you don't have the framework to apply it. Reveal Your Path is it. This is the missing piece. This is the glue. This is the action plan. This is the framework. The checklist you've been looking for to make it real in your life. “I’m shattering the goals I’ve set for myself already. I feel pretty much unstoppable. Every aspect of my life has been affected positively.” Neal Ewers, marketing coordinator, Beat the Streets Toronto “There's no comparison in terms of the money spent to the value received. Completing DYP has left me with the clarity I was searching for with my goals, the direction I need to head in many areas, and a tangible plan to get there!" Jared Kahmar, Assistant Principal, Port Jervis High School, NY "I found the Reveal Your Path program delivered on everything it promised and more. What I found most valuable was getting a level of clarity on my most important goals that I haven't had since I was competing in college. Gaining that clarity allowed me to break through the inertia and made taking action easy because I knew that the results of that action would take me closer to my ideal life. I would recommend this program to anyone who wants to be extraordinary by doing the extra things that most people are unwilling to do." Sam Shames, MIT graduate, Entrepreneur, 4x All American and National Champion wrestler If this is what you want-- if this is what you need-- then go to RevealYourPath.com because I’m opening the doors to another small group that starts August 1st. Reveal Your Path is four weeks and there are three levels so that you can find one that fits your busy life and your budget. If you register by July 20th, you get a free one-on-one assessment call with me that we’ll do before we start so that you can get the most out of your investment.
