What it takes to tap into your highest potential, to achieve ultimate human performance?
In this episode, we dive deep into the science of inspiration and how it can lead to incredible feats. Ashton shares a gripping story from his time in the mountains of Afghanistan, where instinct and inspiration saved lives. Drawing from Stephen Collar's book, "The Rise of Superman," we explore the concept of the flow state, where risk and challenge become catalysts for peak performance. Ashton emphasizes the power of intention in our daily lives. By setting clear intentions each morning, we can cultivate inspiration and hyper-awareness throughout the day. Being intentional can lead to remarkable moments and align your actions with your goals.

[00:00 – 10:18] Harnessing Fear, Instinct, and Flow State
Fear can guide and inspire action in high-risk situations, often leading to instinctual and effective responses. The concept of "flow state" is crucial in achieving peak performance, similar to deep meditation, enabling individuals to act without conscious thought. Cultivating inspiration involves turning work into play, maintaining intrinsic motivation, and striving to be one's highest self. [10:19 – 20:22] Living with Intention
· Intentional morning routines set the tone for success, focusing the mind and fostering a proactive, rather than reactive, approach to daily goals.
· Setting clear, believable intentions enables a state of heightened awareness and inspiration, aligning subconscious processing with conscious goals and actions.
· Being intentional and taking initial actions can lead to a flow state where inspiration strikes, allowing unexpected and optimal solutions and opportunities to unfold.

Key Quotes
“If we are hunting the highest version of ourselves, then we need to turn work into play and not the other way around. Unless we invert this equation, much of our capacity for intrinsic motivation starts to shut down.” – Ashton Levarek
“Every morning, write down what your intention is for the day. If you are absolutely clear about your intention, your subconscious will work overtime throughout the day to help you find that. And you will be inspired." – Ashton Levarek.
