#263 How Matt Bradford Found His Purpose After Losing His Legs and Sight to an IED

from Success for the Athletic-Minded Man · host Jim Harshaw, Jr.

Action Plan: https://jimharshawjr.com/ACTION Free Clarity Call: https://jimharshawjr.com/APPLY “The next hour is not guaranteed, so we’ve got to live each minute to the fullest.”   No legs. No vision. No problem.    Would you have the guts to say this if you lost your legs?    On January 18, 2007, Matt Bradford was severely injured after stepping on an Improvised Explosive Device in Haditha Iraq. At that moment, his whole life was detoured. He learned the true meaning of overcoming, adapting, and success through failure.  Matt never let his injuries define who he was or what he could do. He sees every obstacle as a new challenge for him to overcome. Over the years, he has been inspired to share his story to motivate others through their own life challenges with his message of #JustWalk and #NoLegsNoVisionNoProblem. I hope by the end of this interview, you find the courage to look at  Your challenges, Your failures,  Your setbacks,  Your adversity,  ... and have the mindset of no legs, no vision, no problem.  If you don’t have time to listen to the entire episode or if you hear something that you like but don’t have time to write it down, be sure to grab your free copy of the Action Plan from this episode-- as well as get access to action plans from EVERY episode-- at http://www.JimHarshawJr.com/Action.      Let's connect:   Website: https://jimharshawjr.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jimharshawjr Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jimharshawjr/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/jimharshaw   About Your Host Jim Harshaw   My name is Jim Harshaw. And I know where you’re at. You’re working hard and qualified for what you do but you aren’t getting what you want. 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 in 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 to 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, CEOs, 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 as 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.
