What Does Sustainable Personal Performance Look Like?

The Threat >>

One of the key elements to high performance is consistency over time, which, when not managed effectively, leads to below-average and burnout, if you're lucky..

From my experience, things like work, family and home and social commitments are the most common "threats" to consistent personal performance.

The Opportunity >>

Create a performance system that enhances you throughout all the above and more in life.

What helps you feel energised throughout your day?

What sharpens your thinking?

What elevates your mood and level of contribution?

What sucks your enthusiasm and drains your motivation?

The Process >>

Choose 2-3 short acitvities, performed together or throughout the day

(ideally when you can be alone).

Dedicate 1 activity each to (elevate) your mental, physical and emotional state (reading, watching/listening to something educational, journaling, exercise, art or absolutely whatever works and gets the best out of you).

Anchor these activities to existing habits to facilitate the integration.

(Curious to know mine? Email me.)

The Metrics >>

Choose 1 activity you're going to start with and schedule it. Set a reminder, alarm and tell your partner or friend for accountability.

Remember why you are doing this and imagine how you're going to feel as a result of creating a performance system. Commit to this process for 2 weeks before adding the next activity.

When you learn to enjoy and look forward to these, you will have created the foundation of a personal performance system you won't be able to live without.

Life is about to get a whole lot better.

To your best week,

Stefano
