The Science-Backed High Performance Habits
that Make People Extraordinary
@BrendonBurchardAuthor, High Performance HabitsCEO, High Performance Institute
1. Why do some individuals and teams succeed more quickly than others and sustain that success over the long term?
2. Of those who pull it off, why are some miserable and others happy on the journey?
3. What motivates people to reach for higher levels of success in the first place, and what kinds of habits, training, and support help them continue to improve?
My obsession. !What leads to sustained long-term success?!
Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence,
but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do.
Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
—Aristotle

High performance means succeeding beyond standard norms, consistently over the long term,
while maintaining wellbeing and positive relationships.
It feels like the “full engagement,” “joy,” and “confidence”
that comes from giving your absolute best.
What is high performance? We all want to succeed and FEELS our absolute best.!
The FindingsIt’s not what we thought.!
High performance is not strongly correlated with!age, gender, nationality, intelligence,!
personality, strengths, creativity, empathy,!years of experience, or compensation.!
High performers do not report working on!their strengths any more than other people do.!
!
The question they ask is less often !“Who am I and what am I good at?”
and more often !“What is required to be of value and service
here, and how can I grow into thatand lead others to deliver that value and
service?”
It’s not about strengths. !You can have all the strengths in the world,!but without the right habits you don’t get anything done.!
