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

Quotable moments:
"Practicing gratitude in a systematic intentional way is important, and I'm happy to talk about what I do on a daily basis, but it's a very specific intentional way because that helps release certain neurochemicals like serotonin and oxytocin, which helps promote happiness, calms us down, being able to enjoy things." - Dr. Arman Taghizadeh
"It's prioritization, but also it's a, it's a concept called chunking, right? The number three to five, I said that now a couple of times, right? That's important." - Dr. Arman Taghizadeh
"I think any athlete, any CEO, any parent will say, man, no, there's times like I'm just, I'm exhausted, man. I'm not there. And the more you push and push and push psychologically and emotionally, like it becomes harder and harder to recover from that." - Dr. Arman Taghizadeh
