The Transformational Leader

Ep 321: The Disappointment of High Performance


Listen Later

If you ask people who are high performers how they experience disappointment, they will tell you that they don't have a lot of disappointment in their life. Disappointments are uncommon for these people.

What is going on is that people learn to perform and put out some excellent work, and they constantly try to outrun the specter of disappointment for themselves and other people.

There is a pattern for high performers that leads to a great deal of burnout because there is an inability to slow down and take a rest. It is the trait or pattern where someone hurts and injures themselves and drives them crazy.

In this episode of The Transformational Leader with Adam Quiney, we will start to look at it from a different perspective. We will look at it not on how they have always been, but on how they became. Enjoy the show!
