It's victory unfulfilled like if you don't know what winning means to you, if you can't clearly articulate what success means to you and why, that's what it means to you, you're not gonna figure out how to go about achieving it at the highest level.” 06:43 ” When you can define winning in a way that your people feel like they're better, that there's meaning behind it, that it makes them better as people. Okay. That it makes them contribute to the greater good. When you can define winning as an inclusive culture where your level of value isn't simply determined by your output.” 012:33 “And when you sit there and you talk about values, when you talk about, okay, I understand my values, how well do you communicate them?” 014:01 “You know, we talk all the time about growing through adversity, not going through adversity. So many folks focus on, okay, let's just get through this. If we can just get through this, we're gonna be okay. How do you grow through that adversity? 015:01 “Values lead to intangibles. And intangibles are the little things. Okay. What separates you? And we often, like in athletics, we talk about intangibles, right? Diving for loose balls, you know, making the extra effort, talking, communicating with your teammates, being the coach on the floor.

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
