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.
