We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Howard Falco. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Howard below.

Hi Howard , thanks for joining us today. If you had a defining moment that you feel really changed the trajectory of your career, we’d love to hear the story and details.

Yes, there is a defining moment. I was always very curious as a child and a seeker of life’s deeper meaning and understandings. As I got into my late teens and twenties these questions grew stronger and more intense. In my mid thirties I seemingly had it all. I had a finance degree, working in financial industry, was married and in love with two kids and we just moved into our second home. Yet these bigger questions about life still persisted an nagged at me everyday.. One day, exhausted by my lack of inner peace regardless of what. already had achieved, I threw my hands up and said, “I want to know!” “I am ready!”. Two weeks later I went through what would be the first of two organic “peak experiences” of insight and an expansion of awareness that led me to understand more about the nature of life, meaning and purpose than I ever imagined possible. From one moment to the next I had a knowing that was beyond words, I knew this was no small realization so I walked away from my job and began to write the first of two books revealing what I had come to understand about life. Both got published by a major publisher and I began working with individuals all over the world on every issue imaginable. This led to my work with college and professional athletes helping them use the power and understanding of mind and mental strength to achieve next-level performance. There are so many profound lessons form this insight that can help anyone in life. My mission is to share these insights and help people live happier more peaceful lives.

Howard , before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?

What sets this work apart is the depth of the wisdom and how it has a profound effect on the an individuals way of looking at themselves (identity). When there is a shift in identity there is an automatic shift in thought, perception and action. Reality begins t0 change! Very proud of the thousands of lives this work has touched and changed and the thousands more to come.

What’s a lesson you had to unlearn and what’s the backstory?

A big missing piece in the education of kids in our society is how we interpret ourselves and process our sense of self-worth. This one interpretation is critical to every decision and choice one will make in their lives. I had to unlearn a feeling and belief in a sense of unworthiness. My parents did the best they could have based on their upbringing and nurturing. However, I realized early on that I had to believe in my core that I was worthy of what I wanted to achieve. I had to rewire some of my thoughts and learn to see my moment by moment perfection. That in each past moment I was doing the best I could have for that moment. I worked hard to accept and love myself fully because these truths were the key to how big I would dream and how hard I would work to achieve them. The more young people that can understand this critical awareness earlier in life the better our society will be as a whole!

Other than training/knowledge, what do you think is most helpful for succeeding in your field?

Persistence. The will to never give up and to learn at each step along the way. Persistence is fueled by passion. To be successful you must have a passion for what you do and what you want to achieve. You also need a faith in yourself and the idea that you will arrive at the desired outcome. This is what will help you to get through the bigger challenges that cone your way. There will always be challenges. Life must vet you out to see if you really are who you say you are, Be prepared for anything.
