Extreme Athlete’s “QUITPROOF” MINDSET: From Childhood Trauma To World-Record Holder | TOM JONES #263

Unlock Your Potential with Jeff Lerner - A podcast by Jeff Lerner

Categories:

This new episode of Unlock Your Potential features Tom “Quitproof” Jones. As a marine veteran and world record holder, Tom conquered extreme physical challenges, including a marathon pace for 121 consecutive days from Huntington Beach, California, to New York City. At the beginning of the episode, Tom starts the conversation by sharing his philosophy on adversity: how it can be a path to opportunity rather than a reason to quit. Midway through our conversation, we explore the concept of the North Star as a guiding light that fuels our ambitions. We talk about the importance of courage, taking action, and the remarkable power of vocalizing your goals to the world. In the last part of the episode, we delve into the significance of trauma and its pivotal role in unlocking your true potential. It is a potent reminder that the only element within your control is yourself. I hope you enjoy this episode and feel inspired to persistently pursue your goals, without ever considering quitting.
