Unfortunately a lot of high performers are so accustomed to running on dirty fuel (Insecurity, Fear, Ego) that it can be hard to imagine what it would actually be like to compete freely with clean fuel (Deep Contentment, Peace, Joy).  But it is possible. 

Drift is subtle like that. It is so pervasive and ubiquitous that it is essentially unnoticeable to those traveling in a direction aided by it.

The way you think is a lagging measure of the sum total of all that you consume.

We must humbly remind ourselves of the likely inaccuracies of our current perspectives.

How we relate to work matters. The reality is we’re often avoiding work, or leaning into work. We’re either loathing the work, or fully engaged in the work. We’re running from it. Or looking forward to it. 

We become prisoners of our own mindsets – the set of beliefs and attitudes that shape our view of the circumstances, the opportunities, and ourselves.

“The champion doesn’t care about keeping an accurate record in his own mind. He thinks and remembers in ways that will help him achieve and maintain a confident self-image.”

The fervent pace in which we “chase results” in all facets of our lives leaves little to no time for us to savor a moment.

Be mindful of the story you’re living. If you don’t like the story, what can you do that’s in your control to change it?

Remember, as you chase life's successes obtaining peace of mind may be the best indicator of success.
