Have you ever thought about how much better you could be doing in your business or career? What about your relationship with someone you love or
state of your health right now? I have to admit that at any point in my life, one or more of these areas needs more attention than I give it.
There seems to be so much to do, so much to accomplish if 'more' is focus.
Let me suggest that quest for more is a trap. It never stops.
Optimum performance is about playing life at highest possible level. If we are so full of potential, then why are most of us not living up to that potential in every area of our life?
There are a couple of very good reasons that make perfect sense and we'll start with desire, passion and fun. Do you remember when you were a kid and all you wanted to do was play?
What was one thing you loved to do that you could do for hours and never want to stop?
Ask yourself why?
If you are like me, then it's because it was fun and exciting and you felt good doing it. It made you happy and you never wanted to stop doing it until you dropped.
We all knew that we could get hurt running, playing, and challenging ourselves. But reward of having fun, feeling free and sense of accomplishment was worth price.
We were born natural risk takers back then. What happened and why is it relevant to optimum performance?
Part of reason you enjoyed what you did was 'positive feedback' you received from others.
The other more important part is because it was what you wanted to do. It didn't really matter how 'good' you were. The 'how good' was secondary to just having fun.
