Hey, this is Leo for actualized.org, and in this quick self-help segment, I'm going to talk about

peak performance.

What is peak performance and how do you achieve it?

Well for me, I love peak performance.

This is like the greatest feeling ever.

When you're out there and you're just excelling, you're just killing it,

whether you're running a marathon and you're killing it there,

or you're at the gym and you're killing it there, or at your work you're giving an awesome presentation

or you're writing a novel and you're just having an awesome day and you write an awesome chapter

or whatever else it is for you.

Just being at the peak of your potential

and actually being on that zone where you know

that you have so much potential,

but then you also know that you're stepping up to it and you're actually

realizing it and that feeling of realizing your potential. To me, that's one of the

greatest feelings in the world. And one of the reasons that I found at actualized.org is because I want to figure out what is the psychology

behind getting that more consistently?

Because I find the biggest challenge with performance is that it's hard to stay at a peak performance all the time, right?

That's in fact why they call it peak performance.

It's like your performance is down here and then it peaks and then it drops back down, it kind of spikes, creates a spike and then it's back down to this to this low baseline.

Well, the question that I have and the question that you should have is how do we get that peak and

sustain that peak so it turns into a plateau so that you're getting high
