What I’m Reading – The Week of August 11th

Below are some of the most intriguing, thought-provoking and actionable performance-related content pieces I read, watched or listened to this week. (Some I read at the park with my pup….)

  • We’ve Reached Peak Wellness and Most of It Is Nonsense

“According to decades of research, wellness is a lifestyle or state of being that goes beyond merely the absence of disease and into the realm of maximizing human potential.”

  • How To See Things As They Are

“We have a habit of looking at what surrounds us through a self-referential lens. We don’t just see a thing, we see the way that thing fits, or doesn’t fit, into our lives.”

  • Why You Should Try Micromastery

“A micromastery isn’t about spending 10,000 hours becoming an expert at something. Because the skills tackled in a micromastery are often simple and always repeatable, it almost always guarantees a payoff.”

  • Brutal Deconstruction of Self Will Drive Improvement and Success

“I’m not suggesting becoming something that you are not, but rather understanding completely who you are. It took a while, but I realized that while every toolbox needs a hammer, every problem ain’t a nail.”
