Book 16 out of 30 took a while to finish, but I managed to squeeze in some reading during the super busy months of September and October. Today marks exactly a month since I started it, and it’s easily become one of my favorites this year. In High Performance, Jake Humphrey and Prof Damian Hughes delve into what it takes to be a high performer, pulling insights from top-tier business leaders, academics, sports figures, and entertainment icons.
A few key takeaways:
? Success starts with a high-performance mindset.
? Own your actions and handle challenges in the most effective way possible.
? True motivation for high performance comes from within.
? Mastering your emotions is crucial.
? Focus on behaviors that will drive you forward—lean into your strengths and don’t obsess over weaknesses. High performers know their unique skills.
? Be adaptable, but stick to non-negotiable habits like time management or daily exercise.
? Having a team committed to a higher purpose is essential.
At the end of the day, high performers are authentic and courageous, finding paths that align with their true selves.
