#1. Start with your mindset.<\/strong>

Your performance in the world is simply the result of the things you believe. If you really don\u2019t think you\u2019re the kind of person who produces epic results or becomes uber-fit or creates a financial fortune or elevates entire communities, then you\u2019re just not going to do what it takes to make these visions real\u2026

\u2026change your private story about your potential and your behavior changes by itself. Begin within. Always.

#2. Clear out the constraints.<\/strong>

So many of us want to sustain our A-Games over an entire career versus being one hit wonders. But we fill our lives with so many energy drains and constraints that we never create greatness that endures. My encouragement: delete the energy vampires from your life, clean out all complexity, build a team around you that frees you to fly, remove anything toxic and cherish simplicity. Because that\u2019s where genius lives.

#3. Walk with icons. You\u2019re smart and talented.<\/strong>

So you get that the caliber of your associations determines the level of your success\u2026

\u2026some intelligent research has been done on the drivers of exceptional performance (read Talent is Overrated, for example). And one of the keys to genius is that every great performer was a member of a \u201ctalent hub\u201d\u2026

\u2026in other words, associating with others aiming to become world-class lifts up\u2013and sustains\u2013your A-Game. To make the final months of this year the single best months in the history of your entire life, you absolutely must commit to having conversations\u2013and building alliances\u2013with people who are a few levels above you.

#4: Maintain the extreme training.<\/strong>

So easy to get to a great place and then slow down on your practice protocols. But the very best of the best practice even harder as they become more successful\u2026 <\/em>

\u2026remember what the Spartan warriors taught us: \u201csweat more in practice and you\u2019ll bleed less at war.\u201d

#5. Get your routines right.<\/strong>

Epic production has less to do with your willpower and more to do with the routines you install. Get those right and you\u2019ll enjoy exponential resultsautomatically.<\/em>

#6. Never Rest on Your Success.<\/strong>

Success is ever so dangerous. Once you rise to success, it\u2019s so easy to stop doing the things that made you successful. The fire in the belly to become legendary can begin to diminish. Arrogance can creep in. Taking customers for granted often happens. And the will to amp up to your next level can be left behind\u2026

\u2026what makes true icons is that they know that the top of one mountain just allows you to see the next peaks to climb.

\u2026for those devoted to sustaining their A-Games over a lifetime, the whole nature of the pursuit is to see how high they can rise, to capitalize on as much of their potential as possible and to contribute as much value to humanity as they can.

All green lights! Let\u2019s get you to beyond great. You deserve no less.

Your success partner,<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
