21 Habits to Achieve Peak Performance – Part 1: Warrior Mind Podcast #229

Over four years and going strong!  With over 200,000 downloads from over 9 countries and 5 continent’s….this is the Warrior Mind Podcast.

This Warrior Mind Podcast is based on the “Habits Of Peak Performers – Part 1.”

The purpose of this Warrior Mind Podcast is to inform you of the specific habits of peak performers so that you’ll have the blueprint to their success and be able to model these habits in your life.

Habit formation is the process by which new behaviors become automatic. If you instinctively reach for a cigarette the moment you wake up in the morning, you have a habit.

By the same token, if you feel inclined to lace up your running shoes and hit the streets as soon as you get home, you’ve acquired a habit.

Old habits are hard to break and new habits are hard to form.

That’s because the behavioral patterns we repeat most often are literally etched into our neural pathways. The good news is that, through repetition, it’s possible to form new habits (and maintain them as well).

The difference between peak performers and the “also ran’s” is that they have developed significant mental strength habits.

Research at Harvard, Yale, Stanford and University of California identified 21 patterns and habits of peak performers.

Definition Peak Performer: Reaching their own goal while enriching their lives and the lives of others.

There is a process in NLP called “modeling.” This is where you find the beliefs, habit, traits, etc. of a person that has what you want, is excelling in an area of their life where you’d like to excel and basically demonstrating excellence.

5 Mental Habits of Peak Performers – Part 1

Mental Habit #1. Sensory Goal and Vision:

  • Peak performers know and use the power of the electrochemistry of the brain to create a compelling future that sends out AND attracts the future they desire.
  • They know what they want out of life in full sensory and multidimensional detail before they achieve it.
  • They pre-live/experience every goal.
  • Their Life force is behind their motivation.
  • They know the clearer the vision the more the dedication to the achievement of that vision.
  • They have a strong desire to create.
  • They utilize ALL their senses; visual, auditory, kinesthetic, olfactory, gustatory, when creating their compelling future.

Steven Pinker in “How the Mind Works” goes over the importance of mental imagery.

By taking these 21 habits from peak performers and modeling them, you will manifest outstanding results in your life and business. This never fails…the person doing the modeling may fail, but the process never fails.

These habits fall into 5 categories:

  • Mental
  • Physical
  • Emotional
  • Financial
  • Spiritual

In this post along with the others to follow, I’m going to breakdown each habit within the specific category.  The intent here is provide you with the “secret” that all successful people have…empowering habits.

I’m going to break up the 5 categories over several podcasts.
