Jim Loehr was my favorite speaker at the Fortune Leadership Summit in Orlando last week.
My takeaways:
– We’re all tired and stressed, but that’s a non-helpful point of view.
– Focus on your purpose, and then expend high levels of energy aligned with that purpose, oscillating with periods of effective rest.
– Stress is good, that’s how we get stronger. Chronic stress will kill you.
– Take 10-15 minutes to strategically rest every 90 minutes.
