When I audit the seasons of my life where I enjoyed frequent success, one theme keeps sticking out…
I was open to learning new things…
New ways to approach problems…
New techniques to optimize my performance in every role I played.
In today’s 5-Minute Drill, I share a powerful stress relief technique I learned in one of my winning seasons. It’s become part of my daily stress management practice, and a technique that I’ve trained my clients to use.
So, if you’re open to learning more about a technique that athletes, executives, and world-renowned leaders like Tony Robbins use to overcome stressful situations and seasons, then lock in to today’s drill.
