6 Habits that’ll turn you into a high-performer
Please allow me to break it down
1. Seek clarity
A very simple approach to seeking clarity is to focus on four things: service, self, skills, and social.
- How do you want to describe your ideal self?
- How do you want to behave socially?
- What skills would you want to develop and demonstrate to others?
- What type of service would you care to provide?
Asking — and answering those questions more often than other folks will definitely give you the edge.
2. Generate energy
Most individuals bleed out energy and intention in the transitions between tasks, between meetings, etc. High performers have mastered their transitions.
They’re more likely to take a quick break, to close their eyes, to meditate — to give themselves a short psychological break that releases their tension and focus from one activity so they are primed to take on the next.
Give your mind and body a break every 50–60 minutes, plan your day in those chunks. You’ll be much more at ease trust.
