Rest as an Essential Part of Elite Performance?
About this episode
All this pressure to be productive, all the time, no matter what the season, has made many among us see ourselves as unsuccessful. It’s made too many good souls exhausted.
And left a ton of our brothers and sisters in the world fearing they are somehow of less value.
There are a few remedies. The first is to make sure that where you’re productive you’re really productive. And when the time for work is over, you make the time to recover.
It’s really really really important to remember that working hard and stress are not evils (at all!).
It’s the failure of so many of us to recover and retreat from stress so that we refuel and enjoy life fully that’s the real and pressing problem.
Readers of my bestselling book “The 5AM Club” are deeply resonating with a concept I share called the Twin Cycles of Elite Performance (T2CEP) - it represents the science that confirms the most productive people on the planet don’t work all the time. You can order the book here.

Hi, it's Robin Sharma and welcome to Daily Mastery. This is my short form podcast where I'll walk you through the insights, methodologies, and tactics that I've shared with many of the world's most successful people as their mentor, including celebrity billionaires, NBA superstars, world-class artists, and global humanitarians. I hope you find great value today's episode. Rest and recovery is not a luxury, it's a necessity. So taking a box of books up to the cottage to get away from the world to do some deep thinking is not a waste of time, it's one of the best uses of your time. Making the time for silence and solitude and stillness might make you feel like you're not doing enough, but those are the kinds of things that give you the ideas that
change the game. I guess what I'm suggesting to you with great love and respect is simply this. Sometimes you have to slow down to speed up, and there's no point in being busy being busy around the wrong things. Hi, it's Robin Sharma. I hope you've received strong value from today's episode. I encourage you to read my latest book, The Everyday Hero Manifesto, which is helping people from right across the world live soaring lives. If you'd like to go into it further learning, you can head over to robincharma.com where you can download my free ebook, The World Changers Manifesto, and when you do that, you'll also get full access to The Everyday Hero Training Formula, which is a complete system to help you upgrade your productivity, positivity, impact, and the quality of your life. Have an outstanding day.
