High Performance and the Cost of Holding It Together

High performance tells you what's possible.

Cost tells you what's sustainable.

It took me most of a career to learn that. Today you can read it for free.

The Breaking Point (Book 1) is free on Kindle today through Sunday, in a newly updated edition. Inside:

• Why functioning and being well are not the same thing

• How professionalism can become a habit of editing yourself

• The difference between adaptation and alignment

• Questions for Reflection at the end of every chapter, and a new Grounding section in each one: a moment of reassurance and perspective as you take in what you've read, without being asked to do more, fix anything, or have all the answers

If you've confused "I can still deliver" with "I'm fine," I've been there. There is a way back to trusting yourself, and it starts with paying attention.

Two small asks:

1️⃣ Download it free this weekend.

2️⃣ If it helps, leave an honest review. A review helps the next leader find it.

What has holding it all together cost you?

With gratitude to Marie Barootjian and Marlin Todd.
