My Story
Hello, my name is Michael Tharp and I am a lifetime teacher, coach, and learner. I am originally from the Metro Detroit are in Michigan but have spent the last 3 decades living and teaching in the Grand Rapids/Greenville area. I earned my undergraduate degree from Cedarville University in Ohio in Social Studies RX. I went back to get my Master's in special education from Grand Valley State University. I have been a public school teacher for over 15 years now and coached multiple sports for a decade. I have always had a passion to teach the truth about history, money, and mindset. As our world and economy is changing rapidly I want to expand my reach and help others all around the world learn how their mindset can manifest anything they want in their life. In 2017 I became fascinated with the technology of blockchain and how it can transform our world of scarcity to one of abundance with peace and prosperity for all.
My Mission
As I have tried to help educate and train students over the last two decades I have found that I must overcome the mindset that has been implanted in them by our society, culture, media, and institutions. We have been taught that we must trade our time for money to do a JOB that usually doesn’t value us for our true worth. My goal is to inspire and train others to believe in themselves and follow their true passions to live a truly happy and fulfilling life. A few of my main teaching points are to help others become independent instead of being dependent on others for their livelihood. One of the easiest ways to do this is to help others understand that to become financially free you must get rid of liabilities and acquire assets as well as to find a way to have your money make money so others can stop trading their time for money. To be truly free one must master their mindset, health, and wealth. These are the areas I want to focus on and provide value to help others believe in themselves and become financially free.
Most of us were taught to follow the 40/40/40 plan in our life. Work 40 hours a week for 40 years to then live on 40% of what we made in our life.
