    QUOTES

    “The key is using stress and adapting to it and improving. 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

    Quotable moments:

    "We influence people all the time every day. You walk into a room and you change the tenor of the room." - Dr. Vanessa Bohns

    "People are going to listen to me, but it's not going to be immediate. It's not going to always be so obvious." - Dr. Vanessa Bohns

    "Assume you're going to get a yes. If you go into the interaction assuming you're going to get a yes, you go into it with that nice tone." - Dr. Vanessa Bohns

    "There's all these ways we could talk about to have more influence to get what you want, but there's also the concern about putting pressure, unnecessary pressure on people." - Dr. Vanessa Bohns

    "We're looking at how being at that moment of signature, if you really feel like you're truly consenting and know what you're agreeing to and how that affects these downstream outcomes." - Dr. Vanessa Bohns

    Quotable moments:

    "Anger that you're feeling in that moment, that's just information about the game. That's maybe information about your current performance or information about your opponent or information about how you feel about getting body bagged. Right? All those, all that information. It's just, it's not a sign that anything's good, bad, wrong, anything. It's just data." - Dr. Alex Auerbach

    "If the anger helps you perform better, by all means, use it to facilitate increased energy, but if it starts to, you know, take away from your focus or hurt your performance, or you start playing out of control in a way that is not consistent with you, right. Break that contact, slow yourself down, have your teammate talk to you slowly, get a drink of water, right?" - Dr. Alex Auerbach
