Remove Blocks

During Peak Performance Therapy we will remove blocks to achievement, build mental strengths and resources. Self-defeating behaviors, attitudes and beliefs can be modified and replaced with high-functioning behaviors, perspectives and beliefs. You can remove blocks caused by past failure. The first step in performance enhancement therapy is to define your goals, and any limit or ceiling you are encountering. Identify stress, blocks, fears. What are your strengths? Where do you want to be, when? What factors are slowing you in reaching your goals, or what could speed your success?

The Power of EMDR

Peak performance, or "performance enhancement" takes EMDR's power and removes negative beliefs, enabling new programming in the mind, strengthening the physiological sensations and visualization of the desired performance.
It can be difficult to imagine a positive future when negativity has dominated one's thinking, emotions and behaviors. The goal of this therapy is that the devastating effects of negative feelings, thoughts and behaviors will be transformed into positive programming and more vibrant health and well-being.

Note that research results don't yet support all the ways that individual therapists use EMDR in their practice. Please ask your therapist to tell you about their training and successes with clients. Read more about the current research and the efficacy of EMDR (emdria.org). Peak Performance can enhance and "install" positive programming for future tasks, challenges and performances. It can increase creativity, enthusiasm, self-confidence, and quality of work performance. You will move beyond your current best to higher levels. And you will find that these techniques “pre-program” your brain, allowing you to focus exclusively on the task or performance itself.

Oh, What a Year It Was! I recently shared with our Best Life Design Community, an exercise by Dan Pearce of Single Dad Laughing (http://bit.ly/fGL6t0) shaking up the New Year’s resolutions process. Instead of listing everything he wanted to happen in the New Year, Dan created a future memory at the beginning of the year about how the year progressed. We encouraged our Community to write their own 2011 in review, so it’s only right that I get the ball rolling and share mine. Here it goes…

“You know what they say,” Pete said. “You’ve got to play the full 60 minutes if you want to win.” Steve began, “Let’s get started. Did everyone write some game plans for their highest priority goals?” Pete replied, “ We haven’t had time yet, Steve, but we’re going to do it this week.” Steve ...

So here he was, stuck in the office instead of watching his son play hockey. Meanwhile, Steve was out playing street hockey for three hours a day with his kids. What weighed more on Pete’s brain was that street hockey used to be the love of his life now, it was just a nuisance. Although he’d ...

I came across a video this week that features a new technology that captures people’s attention in a novel way. It’s worth watching simply to take a look and ask how you might use it in your business. But its value far surpasses this. In this video, Sir Ken Robinson, makes a powerful call for a paradigm shift in education. This struck me at a deep level, given my raising of 3 kids (including one we home schooled for a couple of years to provide him more of what he needed at the time) and my work on behalf of lower opportunity kids in the non-profit sector.
