High Performers

Bite-Sized Book Notes From → High-Performance Habits by Brendon Burchard.

Self and having a clear idea of the kind of person you want to be.

High performers aim at being best versions of themselves and being remembered that way. This would involve things like being nice, attentive and modest, for an example. Once you define the self you desire to become, it becomes a matter of have your actions been in line with that self so far if not what do you need to change?

The Social sphere and being aware and intentional about your interactions with others.

Socially there is no such thing as autopilot for high performers. Instead, consider this: How can I make this meeting go well and be impactful and positively driven?

The skills and knowing precisely which talents need to be developed.

High performers will focus on one main career or area of interest and find time for themselves when they can practice without any disturbances around them. To become a good writer for example will mean allocating time not only learning but also writing itself then seeking feedback to identify areas that require improvement.

Service and finding a way to give back to others.

It is the case that while highly effective people work well for others and not just themselves, this pushes them forward somehow, which makes them energetic and gives them a sense of purpose.

I hope you found these bite-sized curated notes valuable.
