Description

As a performance coach, I often coach and teach people and teams about how you can achieve a thriving life, achieve more in your day, or achieve higher performance in your job.

One of the most important pillars for achieving those things is creating and maintaining energy. You want to get things done at work, but also have the energy to enjoy your family at the end of the day and find balance in your day.

The largest study on high performers, and what it takes to maintain high levels of quality consistently each day has found that the highest performers are very good at creating and maintaining energy all day each day.

Today’s podcast is about creating and maintaining energy, specifically:

• Defining the 3 different kinds of energy that matter when it comes to performance
• Giving you 5 tips, tricks, or approaches to maintaining your energy throughout the day
• Giving you 3 tips for how you can make these ideas stick for the long run

 Summary of Key Points:
“Energy”, particularly for performance, is a holistic combination of three kinds of energy:

• Physical 
• Emotional/Social
• Mental/psychological

The 5 approaches we talk about are based on a mix of the following concepts:

• From High Performance research, we know that high performers proactively structure their day to achieve consistent energy
• From psychology research, we know that energy is a mix of physical aspects, but also mindset, desire, and motivation. Having a growth and positive mindset is critical. 
• From Neuroscience research we know that productivity and consistency is based on how you structure your day, how and when you take breaks, and how you manage your attention throughout the day

In the podcast, we go into more detail on the following 5 approaches that help you to create and maintain energy:

1. Maintain your Homeostasis
2. Work in short sprints
3. Mindful breaks between work sessions
4. Set your mindset
5. Focus on one or two other energy sources if your main one isn’t working
