In this episode, Art shares his "bizarre reboots" and discusses achieving elite performance in fitness and career during midlife.
Art reveals practical methods to separate oneself from the pack and achieve elite performance.
Here are 3 key discussion points from our conversation:
1️⃣ Deliberate Practice: Art explains that deliberate practice involves pushing yourself out of your comfort zone and continuously working on skills to achieve higher competency and growth.
2️⃣ Accountability: Art shares his philosophy on accountability and how traditional methods of holding people accountable often lead to blaming and rationalizations. Instead, he emphasizes inviting accountability through a series of questions that challenge individuals to assess their behaviors and mindsets in relation to their desired results.
3️⃣ Colossal Deception: Art explains the concept of colossal deception, the tendency to prioritize immediate comfort over long-term goals. Art shares strategies for reframing mindsets and focusing on passionate values to overcome this deceptive mindset.
Art inspires you to separate yourself from the rest of the pack, aspiring to be an elite performer by embracing tools like deliberate practice, accountability, and reframing mindsets to prioritize long-term goals over short-term comforts.
