  • “We try to prepare for 100 things, and if you get 99 of them right, you’re going to give yourself opportunities. And there’s always going to be one thing that you just can’t prepare for, but the more you’re ready for, the easier it is to that one thing to deal with as well.” -Andy Tuite [16:11]
  • “Sometimes you gotta take everything you have. You gotta trust your gut and you’ve got to make a decision and execute.” -Andy Tuite [26:37]
  • “Long term is what’s most important, but there is a balance in terms of we have to do things in the short term just to get to the long term. Otherwise, there won’t be a future.” -Brendon Scott [34:35]
  • “Just the practice of preparation in your life, I think allows us to become a more grounded, thoughtful, present human being, and therefore, high performer.” -Dr. Amber Selking [38:53]

  • Send out a self-awareness email to 10 to 15 people and ask them to share two or three things they think you can work on to become a better person. Have the awareness to do something about it.

STANDOUT QUOTES

  • “We aren’t our jobs. We aren’t our occupations, but what we do become is our habits. We do become our processes. We do become the people we surround ourselves with, and so the process of writing down goals that stretch you and make you into a better person that ultimately forms who you are as a human.” -Michael Yoder [08:45]
  • “That is being self-aware enough, hopefully, that in 2021, I’m going to work less, because I didn’t start my own business to work all the time. I really didn’t. I didn’t start my business to make a ton of money. I started my business so I can live the life and the lifestyle that I want to live, and that involves resting.” -Michael Yoder [21:54]
  • “But one of the things that I think that we forget as high performers, particularly in our society, is that recovery is part of the performance process.” -Dr. Amber Selking [22:29]
