#Understanding High Performance

INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE

FULL TRANSCRIPT

Let us understand what high performance is all about by definition, if you see high-performance refers to succeeding beyond standard norms in any given endeavor and doing that consistently over the long term. However, you define success in any given field of endeavor high-performance someone, it could be a person or team a company or a culture. He simply or it simply does it better for longer period of time.

But the fact is high performance isn't just about never-ending Improvement because mere improvement does not always result in high-performance. Lots of people are improving but not necessarily crushing it. I'm sure they inching forward but so is everyone else. Lots of people make progress but not real impact. So high performers are people who break these standard norms. They are the ones who are consistently exceeding the standard expectations and results.

High performance is also very different from mere expertise development. The quest isn't just to learn a new skill or a language or maybe just become a master at something maybe a world-class keyboard player or a CEO of a multinational company.

A high performer in any field isn't just good at a singular task or skill. It's not about that. Maybe he or she has learned adjusting competencies to a particular expertise which means these guys are not a one-hit wonder they do have multiple skill sets that allow them to succeed over the long term and importantly lead others. That's a very important part. They are the ones who practice those meta habits that enable them to excel it multiple areas of their lives.

For example, you know any maybe a cricket game winning or a normal player where it's a cricket game doesn't just know how to just maybe bowl or a bat. He has to master mental toughness. Yes, to master nutrition his self-discipline team leadership, maybe strength and conditioning to negotiate with fellow team players to build this brand and so on and on.

So, someone who reaches high performance in any career must have competed in many of the areas that touch that career. So when you define high performance the word consistent these followed by over the long term and it made really seem redundant but the two words in fact are different, the word consistent is different from the word long term. For example, high performance don't end up successful at the very last minute of a decade's efforts.

They don't become they don't come crashing in after the finish line of success because they are steady, they regularly beat expectations. And if you see to it, there's a consistency to their efforts that will you know, that is way beyond their peers and that's why when you look at them post their success you come to realize that these guys are not surprised winners. It's not all overnight one-time effect.

And as we learn this definition of you know, when you see succeeding Beyond standard Norms consistently over the long term that requires for high-performance to build those habits that are protect their well-being that would help them maintain positive relationships in their lives and that will ensure that they also serve others around them on their bladder to success because you simply can't be the norms you're driven. If you've driven yourself into the ground, it doesn't work that way.

As it turns out High performers. Their sustained success is due in large part to their healthy approach to living. It's not just about achievement in a profession or just one area of interest. It's about creating a high-performance life in which you experience an ongoing feeling of being fully engaged in life of that Joy and confidence that invariably comes from being your best self.

That's why I'm high performance approach extends beyond such popular concepts as you know, just focusing on your strengths or just putting tens of thousands of hours it's beyond that, because lots of people have amazing personal strength, but the thing is they destroy their health in their quest for success, and that's why they can't maintain high performance. How many times do we hear about stories where people have let go on of there? They've let go of them health of their relationship in the quest of success.

Lots of people obsessively practice or put in the hours to such a degree that they can destroy the relationship they need the support the continuing growth. They push away the coach who was helping them progress. They ruin a relationship and the emotional Fallout maybe knock them off their game. They upset the investors and suddenly there's no money coming in to keep them growing.

So it's like when you succeed and when you have that healthy life positive full of emotions and relationships that time, you know, you're on your way to high performance because the way my coach Brendon Burchard describes high performance and the way high performance Institute founded by him the way they have the data of that Institute confirms and this data is after researching thousands thousands of such high performing people. It's not about getting ahead. It's not about ahead at all cost. It's about forming habits that help you both Excel and also enrich in the full spectrum of your life.

Organizations also move in and out of high performance, because today in today's life and in today's Times the organizations worldwide are struggling to stay consistently out in the front because if you see them closely the senior leaders that are leading the teams are fighting with this engaged or under-performing organization culture. They desperately want to take a bold visions and push their people harder, but they already realize that the people are burning out and that's why executors will love, you know, knowing more about high performance.

They'd be thrilled to learn that organizations can be healthy and can be high performing at the same time their employees or executors of the leaders meet. Not burn themselves out.

So do all those people, you know, who are are claiming to be in the best the best zone of themselves and who really wish to reach the next level of success and do that more simply more swiftly and more confidently than last time.

I think high performance is something a subject that we all should study and know more about and look at it, practicing that into our daily lives because, as I believe this always a better way to live and to leave and the good news is that this better way is not a mystery because, when you want to study about high performance, there are these habits that are precise.

They are actionable that are repeatable, scalable and sustainable in order that we can pursue the best life that we all can, and I think that should be the endeavor of each of us.
