Opening during the Nazi occupation of Greece, best-selling No Limits is a true-life adventure story of Nick Haritatos. From his humble beginnings in war-torn Greece to southern Africa, Haritatos began a remarkable journey to success, buying his first business at sixteen and creating a portfolio of successful companies in Rhodesia, South Africa, and the United States.
Buffeted by winds of sweeping political and cultural changes, Haritatos pledged to make his own destiny, regardless of any obstacles. Haritatos lived a life of adventure set amidst dirt roads in tribal lands in Africa, harrowing days of the Rhodesian Bush War, numerous board rooms, and one-of-a-kind ocean-view homes.
With a foreword by Jack Canfield, No Limits gives readers a glimpse into the experiences and mindset of a man who faced numerous obstacles with unwavering confidence and a unique ability to build relationships with people from every walk of life. These relationships, coupled with the determination, passion and focus that he cultivated, gave Haritatos opportunities to build multi-million-dollar businesses, become a successful pilot, walk the 1,200-mile California Coastal Trail from the US-Mexico border north to the Oregon border, create a beautiful family and circle of friends, and achieve almost every other goal he set for himself.
No Limits will both entertain and inspire you. It is full of heart-warming relationships, drama, intrigue, and achievement, set against a background of tumultuous change. Woven into the text and highlighted in the appendix, No Limits includes Haritatos' pillars of business and personal success.
If you want to become the architect of your own destiny, regardless of your circumstances, this book is for you.
What was your main drive to write this book?
For the last 20 years people have been telling me to write a
book about my life. My path has been unique, taking me from Greece to Southern
Africa and finally to the United States.
My life has been full of adventure, challenges,
achievements, and results. I am the architect of my own destiny and I like to
share it with the world.
My motto is “I make events, events don’t make me.” But above
all before my late wife passed away, she requested from me 1. To write a book
about my life and 2. To complete the California Coastal Trail from the US/
Mexican border to the California/Oregon border, 1200 miles long. I promised her
I will do both and I did, and the book is dedicated to her and her memory.
What do you hope readers will learn by reading this book?
The readers will learn that they can do anything they want
if they have the passion, mindset, energy, and determination. I have written 15
pillars of life and business success and they are intertwined within the book
chapters. I had a passion for owning a
business at an early age, in fact I bought my first business at the age of 16
while I was still in school. By the age of 19, I owned 2 businesses, by age 21
I owned 3 businesses. Over my long career I owned 23 companies.
Did you do much research when planning this book?
No research because this is my true-life story as it
happened.
Did you have any main people who helped you in the process
of this book or influenced you
to write it?
Yes, my children and my late wife. But I knew I had a
true-life story full of adventures and challenges that I overcame and wanted to
tell the world how it can be done.
How long did this book take you to write from initial
thought to hitting publish?
It took me 4 years as I rewrote it a few times to make it a
Bestseller, which it is. It was a long journey but worth it. It took me a long
time to put all my life events in the right sequence and to decide which events
to include because I lived in 4 countries and 3 continents.
Do you have plans to write more about this topic or new
topics?
I don’t have any such plans right now.
About the Author
Nick Haritatos is a successful entrepreneur, soccer player, pilot, and devoted family man whose life experience has spanned four countries on three continents. From his humble beginnings in war-torn Greece to southern Africa, Haritatos began a remarkable journey to success, buying his first business at sixteen and creating a portfolio of successful companies in Rhodesia, South Africa, and the United States.
Buffeted by winds of sweeping changes, Nick pledged to make his own destiny, regardless of any obstacles. He lived a life of adventure set amidst mud huts and dirt roads in tribal lands in Africa, harrowing days of the Rhodesian Bush War, numerous board rooms, international trips to over forty countries, and one-of-a-kind ocean view homes.
His business career stretches across twenty-three companies and over fifty years in manufacturing, retail, service, and commercial, retail and residential real estate. With a knack for spotting untapped potential in businesses and people, Nick treasures his vast network of friends as intensely as his financial success. He loves to celebrate life with music and dancing whenever possible.
Early on, Nick developed a unique and flexible lifestyle model that allowed him to oversee multiple businesses simultaneously while devoting plenty of time to his wife and children. With his decision to create his own destiny, Nick maintains control over his life and his future even under challenging circumstances, when most others followed tradition. His motto is “I make events. Events don’t make me.”
An avid athlete, Nick has played and coached soccer for most of his life. Nick has team members who’ve played soccer with him for nearly twenty five years in San Diego. As of the writing of this book, he’s played in more than 2,500 matches, as well as completed several marathons. He plans to be playing soccer when he is eighty years old and beyond.
Outside of his family, one of his proudest achievements was hiking the 1,200-mile California Coastal Trail.
Today Nick uses his considerable business and life experience to mentor and inspire a new generation of entrepreneurs and business leaders, when he isn’t on the soccer field or planning his next walk.
Nick is available to speak to groups interested in business and personal success. For more information on his speaking and mentoring work, visit his website at www.nolimitsbynick.com
