- Relations
For many of us, we have been taught that the more we achieve, the more we accomplish, the more we can feel good about our lives. However, there is one drawback that no one talks about. It’s a real issue that comes with being a high achievers. In fact, high achievers have an extra challenge. In this episode, my guest Mikal Nielsen and I will be opening up the conversation about what it means to be a high achiever; always on the go and and often stuck in the head not stopping long enough to look up and see where they are going. As Mikal describes it, high achievers don’t walk along in life, they run, which means when they run into walls it hits them harder than the average person, and higher impact means that the impact hurts worse.
In this episode, we are going to talk about the high achiever:
What holds them back, and why
What can high achievers do to make things better as they continue to pursue their aspirations
Mikal Nielsen is a life coach who specializes in working with high achievers and an author of two books; one called The Quick Fix To Any Problem and a second book that he co-authored with his wife called Intimately Entwined.
After trying out a number of career options early on in banking and computers, he found his true calling as a life coach for the last 20 years. He is passionate about helping people get more life out of life, more business out of business and more love out of relationships. In his work as a life coach, he is also very passionate about two things:
Growth - his own and facilitating it for others
Figuring out how things work - with a main focus on life and human beings
He is especially passionate about working with high achievers, and helping them to access their natural wisdom.
