Let’s talk a bit about who Jack Canfield is behind the books and workshops famous all over around the world.

Jack grew up with two fathers, the former being divorced by his mom due to alcoholic and violent behavior, and the latter who came out of the Navy in world war II. He lived in different places, and his family is considered a lower middle class at that time. However, his young life started to change when his rich aunt took over his educational needs. Hence, he grew up with a good education until he became Harvard graduate with a Master's degree in Psychological Education. He met several people including Clement Stone, read books and attended lectures that eventually shaped him and his guiding principles as he moved forward with his life. During that time it was the beginning of individualized learning, where as a matter of fact, Jack is one of the pioneers of developing the literally first self-guided education system, where students at that time literally can go at their own pace with all the instruction put on individual cassettes.

Fast forward, today Jack Canfield is recognized as a founder of the billion-dollar Chicken Soup for the Soul™ publishing empire, best-selling author of the books- The Success Principles, The Power of Focus, The Aladdin Factor, Dare to Win, The Key to Living the Law of Attraction, Living the Success Principles, Coaching for Breakthrough Success, and more. He has sold 500 million of books world-wide, trained thousands in 107 countries. He also founded the Transformational Leadership Council, with 2.5 million subscribers and followers on his social media. In this podcast, Jack shared his early childhood background, the people he met in life as well as the events and connections that helped shape his mindset, the principles that made him draw out his potential and maximize it in order to live his dreams, in hope that you, our dear tribe, will also be able to live your dreams by maximizing your potential.
