What makes successful people different from everyone else? Why can some people achieve amazing things, while others never make it off the couch? It was this line of questioning that fascinated today’s podcast guest, Jack Canfield.
And seeing as he’s now the number one success coach in the world, as well as a mega-selling author (who’s written and co-authored more than 150 books, including 66 bestsellers including Chicken Soup For The Soul, and The Success Principles), it’s safe to say that he found some powerful answers to those questions!
Jack graduated from Harvard with a Master’s Degree in psychological education and was one of the earliest champions of peak-performance, developing specific methodologies and results-oriented activities to help people take on greater challenges and produce lasting and life-changing results.
I love it when you have followed someone for years and then you finally meet them and they blow your mind… Jack did that for me. His wisdom, humbleness, and loving energy made me fall even deeper in love with him.
