The Balance Between Performance and Recovery

Living a high-performance life while ensuring adequate recovery is about striking a balance between striving and rejuvenating.

I loved working with Jamie Wehbeh and his insight that 'Robustness' is all about the quality of your plan and 'Resilience' is all about the quality of your recovery.

Here's a concise approach:

1. Define Clear Goals:

- Stretch Goals: Push your limits but ensure they're achievable.

- SMART Goals: Specific, Motivational, Adaptable, Relevant, Trackable (Contact 2b Limitless to understand more).

2. Develop High-Performance Rituals:

- Prioritise: Focus on high-impact tasks.

- Establish Rituals: Strengths-Based Behaviours, Practiced 'on purpose' and positioned to enhance engagement, performance and FUN.

- Continuous Learning: Always seek growth and improvement. (Never a better time in history for this.

- Feedback Loop: Regularly review and adjust your approach.

3. Master the Six Types of Rest:

- Physical Rest: Prioritize sleep and consider activities like yoga.

- Mental Rest: Take breaks, especially during intensive tasks, and consider meditation.

- Sensory Rest: Detach from screens; engage in activities that soothe your senses.

- Creative Rest: Pursue hobbies or activities that reignite your creativity.

- Emotional Rest: Engage in introspection, journaling, or therapy.

- Social Rest: Balance time between socializing and solitude; ensure quality interactions.

4. Time Management (Manage Yourself):

- Time Blocking: Segment your day for specific tasks.

- Eliminate Distractions: Create a dedicated workspace and use tools to keep distractions at bay.

- Delegate: Offload tasks that aren't in your expertise.

5. Maintain Health: Victoria Tipper uses her vast knowledge of this to make it a game changer for leaders and teams.

- Exercise: Keep a regular workout routine.

- Diet: Opt for nutritious and balanced meals.

- Mindfulness: Engage in activities that promote mental well-being.

- Sleep: If sleep was not absolutely necessary evolution would have wiped it out... Get 7 plus hours a night and protect your cycle.

6. Stay Adaptable: 'Be disciplined without rigidity!'

- Be ready to adjust your strategies based on outcomes and personal well-being.

Remember, high performance is a marathon, not a sprint.

Regular rest and reflection are essential to sustain it.
