6 Principles To Stop Feeling So Frantic - Brad Stulberg - #377

**Chris Williamson** (0:00)
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, welcome back to the show. My guest today is Brad Stulberg. He's an expert in peak performance, a coach and an author. The pressure that we put on ourselves to achieve can be intense, but what is the point of success if it crushes your spirit while you're doing it? Brad has coached some of the world's top performers and come up with six principles for groundedness, a path to flourishing which feeds rather than crushes your soul. Today, expect to learn why your performance will improve if you come from a place of enoughness, the crucial difference between playing to win and playing to not lose, Brad's framework to ground yourself in your life, why you shouldn't be ashamed by taking things seriously and much more. This is a conversation that people need to be having a lot more. I think this constant frantic frenetic energy and the belief that we will finally feel like we are enough on the other side of the next achievement that we get, it's not a scalable solution and it does lead us to have miserable lives where we are never in the present moment. It's good to see Brad, someone that works with top, top, top end performers, discussing a challenge that a lot of normal people have and then giving principles from these high achievers that everyone can put into their daily routine.
