People who have cracked the code to success are few and far between. Anyone can aspire to succeed, but undoubtedly there are numerous limits that come into play once people start striving to reach the top. It is an arduous task that only a few have been able to achieve, but knowledge and passion can be the great equalizer, and with a seasoned entrepreneur’s guidance, success is all but guaranteed. Fortunately, Tom McCarthy’s groundbreaking book, “The Breakthrough Code,” discusses his methods in intricate detail, helping aspirants break through their limits and reach their maximum potential in business, athletics and life.
Earning his keep as one of the world’s most inspirational coaches, Tom has forged a path of success not just for himself but for anyone who has had the pleasure of working with him. Currently, the firebrand individual is the CEO and a board member of eight companies, an early-stage investor in over 40 companies and a worldwide Philanthropist.
Tom has built a pristine reputation in the industry, earning him the title of the World’s #1 High Stakes Performance Coach. With Tom, peak performance is the name of the game. Throughout his seasoned career, he has been the coach for athletes who have won World Championships and Olympic Gold Medals.
With a burning passion for helping others, Tom decided to write not just any other self-help book but one that could ultimately shape the lives of those who read it. Earlier in 2022, he published “The Breakthrough Code,” a powerful narrative tale that recounts the many successful principles and habits he shares with top executives, Olympic athletes, and successful entrepreneurs.
“The Breakthrough Code” is foundationally rooted in Tom McCarthy’s three big ideas. The main character, 24-year-old Jonathan Bowman, portrayed as the archetypal success most people dream of being, learns these big ideas alongside the reader, as the book prominently discusses the intricacies on every page.
The first big idea, “Focus on Less, Then Obsess,” revolves around figuring out one clear path to success instead of diversifying one’s focus into vastly different facets of life. After all, no obstacle is too big for a laser-focused individual to break through.
The second big idea, “Upgrade Your Story, Upgrade Your Life,” explains the remarkable ability of stories to shape the lives of people. Upgrading one’s story is about gaining a new perspective and building a better outlook by looking inwards. Tom says that the stories we tell ourselves become our own capabilities, strengths, and weaknesses. Thus, confining oneself to a limited belief will result in living a life with nothing but limits.
Lastly, “Pack Your Day with Effective Actions” ties all these concepts together by seamlessly blending visualization with effective action. Tom separates these effective actions into two categories called “recovery actions,” such as meditating, sleeping, or spending quality time with family, and “achievement actions,” such as conceptualizing ideas, creating content, going to meetings, writing emails, negotiating and selling.
Renowned American author, life and business coach, keynote speaker, and philanthropist Tony Robbins holds “The Breakthrough Code” in such high regard. In his remarkable review of the book, the New York Times #1 Bestselling Author said: “Tom McCarthy is a masterful breakthrough coach with a gift for helping others see the power in their story. When life doesn’t work out according to your plan, that is actually the plan. Adversity is what allows us to grow, and nobody understands that better than Tom. This book provides the blueprint to crack the code and live a life without limits.”
Tom McCarthy has cemented himself as one of the greatest thought leaders of his time. His wildly entertaining and insightful “The Breakthrough Code” has helped countless aspirants live a life without limits by absorbing the many details on every page. To this day, Tom continues to create informative content on Instagram to help people create life’s biggest breakthroughs. Recently, Tom was also a guest on Ed Mylett’s podcast, where they talked about reprogramming the mind to achieve one’s maximum potential.
