Acknowledge what happened, right? Take a second. Acknowledge what happened." - Dr. Arman Taghizadeh "Accept the feelings like you're gonna when you think a certain way. You're going to have certain emotions and so accept them and give yourself some time and give yourself time to be frustrated or angry Or grieve or cry like whatever it is man Give yourself time because if you're feeling that way Then that's your body's emotional response to whatever it is and somebody else might be like this is not a big deal But in that moment it is to you and I think give yourself the respect of validating how you feel Right." - Dr. Arman Taghizadeh "If we want to be great at whatever that is, and that could be athletics, that could be our careers, that could be being a family person, if we really want to, if we really want to consider ourselves a good spouse or a good parent or a good executive or a good boss or a good business owner, a good entrepreneur or a great athlete, whatever we want to do, understand that the more you take those chances and those challenges to be great, the more you're going to have setbacks, but that's, yeah." - Dr. Arman Taghizadeh ABOUT THE BLUEPRINT PODCAST: The BluePrint Podcast is for busy professionals and Household CEOs who care deeply about their families, career, and health.

That’s what high performance is to me, the ability to adapt rapidly so you can achieve your potential. There are five key pillars to creating the conditions for adaptability: sleep, exercise, mental resilience, nutrition, and community/relationships.” - Dr. Erik Korem   “I maybe have a different concept on leadership. To me, leading is a verb. If you’re leading, you’re a leader. If you’re swimming you’re a swimmer, if you’re driving you’re a driver. If you’re leading you’re by definition a leader. I define leading as being looked to in a particular moment to make a decision or perform an action based on your unique gifts and abilities. So by that definition, everybody is a leader. All rank and role really describe is how many people are hoping you get it right when it’s your turn to wear the weight.” - Clint Bruce "Attention is the currency of performance." - Dr. Peter Haberl “That’s what I’ve discovered in the lives of brilliant, prolific, healthy creatives, is that they have networks of people they leverage in the course of their work. That they learn from, that they were challenged by, that they gave great insight and purview into their own life and work, in such a way that they were able to receive feedback that helped them get better at what they do.” - Todd Henry "Restful and fulfilling sleep enables you to grow, adapt, and thrive. It creates the conditions for adaptation, so you can pursue audacious goals and thrive in uncertainty." - Dr. Erik Korem "Most exercise programs fail, not because the reps and sets are poorly designed, but because the program doesn't adjust for how much stress your body can adapt to that day!. That's why Dr. Chris Morris' research and practical application of fluid periodization is the key for unlocking your performance potential." - Dr. Erik Korem
