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 1 Quotable moments:

00:56: “I only mentioned that because it's gonna lead to something a little bit later. We all have an inner voice and inner knowing and almost a compass. But I think throughout time we might get different programming that tells us that your inner voice should not be heard. Mm. You should suppress it.”

2:10: “And that was further kind of trauma that led to the programming because I myself did not feel enough. Not tall enough, not white enough, not American enough, not rich enough, all these things. And for me, I felt like the only way to achieve success is by going and chasing after the things that will make me be enough.”

3:02 “Seven years ago, I was overweight, I was diabetic, I had high blood pressure. And I was on seven prescription medications. And what traditional medicine told me to do at the time was just continue to basically take these meds that, that this was gonna be the destiny, that you were gonna start on a certain amount of meds now, and then over time you would build more and more and more.”

5:51: “I looked at how these people were living and is there any molecular or scientific basis that, that their way of living leads to a longer life? Well, turns out the molecular biology and epigenetic science is starting to prove that how we live our life, our thoughts, our emotions, how much sleep we get, our sense of purpose, all these things actually speak to our DNA in a moment to moment basis that actually controls how our cells behave.”

10:36: “If you find yourself triggered the majority of the day with stress, with anxiety, with worry, with all those negative emotional states, I urge you to think about and look at that potentially being a subconscious pattern that has been conditioned over time.”

15:37 “Your genes are basically constantly listening to the cues of the environment. It's always a dynamic millisecond-to-millisecond interplay between your genes and its environment.”
