Summary: A neuroscientist explains how to reach one's full potential while reducing stress, offering five simple methods--Direction, not motion; Focus, not time; Capacity, not conformity; Energy, not effort; and Impact, not intentions.
Direction, not motion : it's not how busy you are or how fast you're moving, it's how effectively you are advancing in the right direction -- Focus, not time : it's not how well you plan your time, it's how effectively you put your attention on what matters most ... in advance and as it unexpectedly appears -- Capacity, not conformity : it's not how good you are at copying others or making incremental improvements, it's how bold you are at unlocking hidden potential -- in yourself and others -- and applying it in new ways -- Energy, not effort : it's not how hard you try or how long you work, it's how effortlessly you get more of the right things done -- Impact, not intentions : it's not how lofty your intentions are or how much you want things to improve, it's how measurable a difference you are making in living your deepest values and achieving your biggest goals.
