Softwar By Jason Lowery.
Not sure how much connective tissue there is but... 'The subtle art of not giving a fuck'
I remember my sister reading this a few years ago and recommending it. Gonna take a listen :) thank you!
Seven Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen R. Covey
The Power of Focus by Jack Canfield
Oooh, I actually took a non credit course in college almost 19 years ago on the 7 habits...
And recently a former partner sent me photos of some books that used to be mine. And The Power of Focus was one of them. I now remember it did indeed have a really big impact on me at the time. Read it probably 15-17 years ago. A repeat is in store here, or at least of a summarized version in my Headspace app.
One of my mentors in my early 20’s gave me both of those books. Another recommended The Creature from Jekyll Island shortly after. The single biggest impacts on the trajectory of my life and my understanding of the world.
Another big one I was thankfully introduced to early was The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren.
Atomic habits was a big one for me
You’re Already Awesome by Allison Faulkner

Don't read it, just do it. You need nothing but yourself to be an ultra high performer. Just cut everything that does not fit to you.
I love your optimism :) though, my MO has been more of a mystic in a cave than ultra high performer.
one of my favorite things I love is learning and researching. Listening to certain topic books gives me a boost of motivation I currently need plus direction and encouragement to activate certain muscle groups back into memory and motion.
I have a an app that serves me a book summary with keypoints in 15 minutes I can listen to and implementing this in when I remember to help with my intention of how I envision myself walking in the world right now and what I need. ❤️
High performance has nothing to do with "action performance". The performance is more to be in the present moment and feel what the next step ist and walk it. Also to have da deep state of trust in life to be anchored. so it fits absolutely perfect to the mystic in a cave.
Perfect. I already do that. Thank you! :) which is how making this note was born. 🥰🧡
