Peak performance is operating at
your very best but it is not just that it is also the willingness to improve on
a daily basis. In their book Peak: How ToMaster Almost Anything authors Anderson Erickson and Robert Pool demystify
the myth of the peak performer. It is not a person born with extra ordinary
ability they say rather it is the case of an individual who is willing to out
work all other and to outcompete their previous best version. The story of Kobe
Bryant, Michael Jordan, Ray allen, Selena Williams and such performers is not
that of star athletes who could turn a basketball game on its head at any
minute, instead it is the tale of individuals who spent thousands of hours on
the gym, preparing their minds and bodies for success. These individuals
literally get angry at people who discount their hard work, people who only see
the clutch shots and the game winning play people whose only point of view is
skewed towards the money, fame and glory.
Michael Jordan used practice to
eliminate fear and to become better than anyone on the league at the time and
so can you. Some people worry that they are too old to learn new things, there
are even many sayings and proverbs arguing that it gets harder to change
behaviour the more we age. The truth is, humans are able to build tolerance for
all kinds of things like just a little more alcohol, abuse, cocaine and so on
hell there are even people who are able to build tolerance for snake venom. You
can build a tolerance for practice, for daily improvement and whole lot more.
You can perform at your peak this very minute.
