US #1 Todd Harrity on failure, the growth mindset, and improv

We open the conversation by talking about Bristol; his almost accidental journey to getting there and his impressions both on and off court. (00:00 – 08:52)

Todd talks about his early life discovering squash and how there is a heavy emphasis on using it as a vehicle to get into college. He shares his thoughts on coaching, winning, and what he believes is most important at a younger age. (08:52 – 21:33)

We talk about his decision to go to Princeton and his time there; reflecting on the incredible things he achieved, his real experience beyond the achievements, and what he has learnt since then.  (21:44 – 30:27)

We share thoughts on trying new things, exploring life beyond your craft, and the benefit that has. Todd shares a story of taking improv acting classes and how adopting more of a growth mindset has impacted him. (30:28 – 45:07)

Todd shares one of his highlights from Princeton; ending Trinity’s 13-year unbeaten run in the CSA Team Championships, at their home courts in New Jersey. (45:08 – 48:03)

We then move on to talk about life as a professional. The struggles he faced early on, having the Wildcard at the Tournament of Champions, and his thoughts on the “inner game”. (48:04 – 1:04:07)

I ask more specific questions about Todd’s “inner game” (1:04:07 – 1:12:56)

· Is there anything you wished people asked you more? (1:12:57 – 1:13:21)

· What’s the best advice you’ve ever received? (1:13:22 – 1:13:53)

· What’s a book you’d recommend? (1:13:54 – 1:14:06)

· You have 30 minutes with anyone, dead or alive, who would they be? (1:14:07 – 1:15:11)


Best way to connect with Todd and follow his journey (1:15:12 – 1:17:48)


· What is the one thing you know to be true about success? (1:17:49 – 1:17:59)

· What is the one thing you know to be true about failure? (1:18:00 – 1:18:34)

· When you think of success, who is the first person that comes to mind? (1:18:35 – 1:19:29)


Closing thoughts (1:19:30 – 1:20:30)
