High performers achieve success through pushing beyond limits but must avoid extreme exhaustion to prevent harm. Strategies for success include minimizing temptation, short periods of discomfort, and focusing on important challenges. Personal approaches emphasized are maintaining focus, positivity, action orientation, and self-awareness to foster improvement and achieve happiness.

3. What do all people who
achieve excellence and
high performance have
in common?
Willingness to push
themselves beyond
their limits.

4. Many High
Performers work
really hard and face
adversity,
discomfort and
uncertainty to
achieve Success.

5. Be Careful
Don´t Push Too Far!
We should not push
ourselves too far.
The evidences suggest if we
do it we can hurt ourselves
badly.
The key is intensity and
training, not exhaustion.

6. Our Main Enemies
Many people look for
interesting or unfair excuses to
explain their lack of success or
failure: bad luck, being from a
poor family background,
prejudice, unfair life approach,
lack of opportunity, etc.

7. Why is it Difficult to
Succeed?
We hold two powerful instincts:
• Instinct 01 - Avoid pain,
• Instinct 02 - Move towards
pleasure.
Such instincts help us to achieve
mediate results and in most cases,
success is a long term result that
requires more than instincts.

8. Strategy 01
Minimize Temptation
Anyone succumbs in front of
temptation and it will defeat
us if we expose ourselves to it
for too long.
We need to avoid any kind of
risky situation that could lead
us to failure or inertia.

9. Strategy 02
Under a Short
Period of Time
Push yourself to discomfort
only for relatively short
period of time.
Interval training is built on
short bursts of high
intensity exercise offset by
rest and recovery.

10. Strategy 03
Important Challenges
Try beginning the day by
focusing without interruption
on the most important
challenge in front of you, for
no more than 90 minutes, and
then take a real renewal break.
It's much easier to tolerate
discomfort in short doses.

11. Main Personal Life
Approach I
Be focused: without focus
you have a life with no
direction.
Be positive: a positive and
optimistic approach will help
elevate your view of any task
you set out to achieve.

12. Main Personal Life
Approach II
Be action oriented: to
achieve it is important to take
action, since only action
creates results.
Be aware: don’t be a horse
leading a carriage.

13. Conclusion:
Many people spend their lives
without looking for ways to
improve themselves.
We know that it is not an easy task
and our routine can kill our desire
for improvements.
But we need to keep in mind that
improving ourselves is the fast way
to achieve Success and Happiness.
