The Mindset of the Highest Performers with Dr. Jason Brooks The Coach's Playground

What do the highest performers do differently and consistently that make them successful?
What many would fall trap into is they want to get ‘there’ but never take the action.
Put your attention to what you do and prepare for things in your life you know could be coming at you. Knowing your ‘Why’ also works every time.
Dr. Jason Brooks is a Performance Coach who is dedicated to helping folks be and bring their best. Starting with himself.
In this episode, Jason differentiates how the highest performers maintain a level of a mindset that propels them forward even amidst fear. Learn how consistency and attention to detail brought them to where they want to be. How visualization of what you want to exactly happen powers one to work for the goal. He shares the two important factors that when present is a  catalyst for success -- obsessive passion and harmonious passion. Finding joy in what you do obsessively and passionately so it doesn’t feel like it’s a chore. Let’s look at the limiting beliefs and negative thought patterns we have and how they are keeping us from getting stuck in life. If we can get rid of that then everything flows and make way for something bigger and better in life. We have to remember to set boundaries because working harder to be a lesser version of ourselves is not a good idea in the long run.
Don’t let yourself get in the way of your own potential success. Overcome fear and get rid of that inner voice that is stopping us from moving further along. Don’t fear failure. Fail fast and early in life and allow those experiences for significant transformation. And much as we keep ourselves occupied with things to make us successful, it is asked of ourselves to make space for creativity and for other things that also truly matter to us. That’s what will sustain you. We have to put in mind that the only way we learn in life is to engage with our experiences -- good or bad, learn the lessons, apply them, process the emotion, and get on with it.
 “The best performers I've been around are excellent that they have a reason and purpose for almost everything they do. They don't just practice the practice. They practice with intention.”
