Book Quote of the Week 110
“Sixty percent of what you teach applies to everybody. The trick is how you get that sixty percent to the person. If I teach you, I’m concerned about what you think and how you think. I want to teach you how to learn in a way that’s right for you. My greatest challenge is not teaching Tom Brady but some guy who can’t do it at all, and getting them to a point where they can. Now that is coaching.”

Book Quote of the Week 104
High performers can do almost anything they set their heart and their mind to. But not every mountain is worth the climb. What differentiates high performers from others is their critical eye in figuring out what is going to be meaningful to their life experience. They spend more of their time doing things that they find meaningful, and this makes them happy.

Satisfaction is not the cause of great performance; it’s the result
Brendon Burchard
Book Quote of the Week 100
There is a tremendous difference between feeling the fear and doing it anyway and the freedom which comes from finding the space in yourself which is beyond fear. And the more time you spend living beyond fear, the sooner the answer to ‘What would I do if I wasn’t afraid?’ will become ‘Exactly what I’m doing now.'”

Book Quote of the Week 098
High performance is not about a specific type of person. It’s not about winning the genetic lottery, how long you’ve worked, the shade of your skin, how many people are supporting you, or what you’re getting paid. It’s about your performance habits — which you have complete control over.

“…coaching shows us, almost always, that the truth we don’t think we can handle will actually be what wins the trust of another person.”
Brandon Craig

Having your own intention be clear is everything. People don’t like being manipulated. They don’t like bait and switch, or the indirect approach. They want to know what we want and why.

Great ideas are going to confuse other people. But I don’t need other people’s approval to move forward; I just move forward.
Steve Chandler
Book Quote of the Week 67
“When it comes to deals like this, or any negotiation really, the key is to display passion, know-how and determination. Get to the point quickly, be persistent and consistent and don’t rely too heavily on prompts, statistics and certainly not PowerPoint slides.”
Richard Branson
