That’s what high performance is to me, the ability to adapt rapidly so you can achieve your potential. There are five key pillars to creating the conditions for adaptability: sleep, exercise, mental resilience, nutrition, and community/relationships.” - Dr Erik Korem “I maybe have a different concept on leadership. To me, leading is a verb. If you’re leading, you’re a leader. If you’re swimming you’re a swimmer, if you’re driving you’re a driver. If you’re leading you’re by definition a leader. I define leading as being looked to in a particular moment to make a decision or perform an action based on your unique gifts and abilities. So by that definition, everybody is a leader. All rank and role really describe is how many people are hoping you get it right when it’s your turn to wear the weight.” - Clint Bruce

Episode 3 Quotable moments:
35:28 “And so I went to bed thinking about it. I wake up, I'll get those ideas outta my head to continue moving that forward. And so, like I said, on either the treadmill or something like, Just kind of keep pushing it.”
39:03 *“I try to optimize as many days as possible for that and then not feel guilty if the rest of the day doesn't lead to anything, cuz I know that I can always have that time.”
39*:13 “It gives me a lot of comfort of I know I'm at any 2 hours of work away from elite clarity or moving the needle forward. And if I have that blocked every day, it's like I live much more stress-free because I know I'm gonna be able to tackle those.”
41:16 “Each thing kind of builds on its own, like the brain dump. I wake up, I move, then I sit down on my computer and I don't have to close out a bunch of things. It's like just starting those ideas down.”
