Go Big Now: 8 Essential Mindset Practices to Overcome Any Obstacle and Reach Your Goals

“For anyone who wants to multiply their impact exponentially.”

- Verne Harnish, founder of Entrepreneurs’ Organization (EO) and author of Scaling Up

In her work as a business coach and public speaker, Julia Pimsleur has worked with thousands of high achievers. She polled them to discover their greatest challenges — getting the right skill set, having the right network, or mastering their mindset. The overwhelming response was that mindset was the greatest challenge.

What exactly is a “Go Big Mindset,” and how do you get one?

In Go Big Now, Pimsleur distills two decades of studying complex mindset practices into a handful of simple “mindset keys” that anyone can use to achieve ambitious professional and personal goals. These practices include ways to overcome fear and reframe perceived setbacks, replace limiting beliefs with empowering ones, and stay motivated to pursue your big goal even in the face of massive hurdles. Each key is illustrated by an example from a leader, CEO, or celebrity whose mindset catapulted them to success.

Mindset without the “woo”

Pimsleur has taught these techniques in her coaching practice and used them to raise venture capital, build multimillion dollar businesses, work through the end of a marriage, and reinvent herself professionally four times. With a humorous and relatable style, Pimsleur empowers readers to transform aspirational thoughts into life-changing results. Without going on any silent retreats, high five-ing strangers or collecting crystals.
