By the time you finish reading this short article, you'll discover the #1 secret to reaching your peak performance level.
It has been proven again and again that all successful people have used this secret at some point in their lives, and that this secret is responsible for generating successful people and financial giants each and every day.
Over the past few months, I have interviewed over eighty-four successful entrepreneurs, trainers, and coaches who are at the top of their profession.
I asked them about the lessons for success that they have learned throughout their lives, and about the top principle that contributed most to their success.
Surprisingly, most of them revealed that the #1 secret to their success and to reaching their peak performance level was having a MENTOR.
Most of these entrepreneurs have been mentored by someone who is specialized in and has achieved a high level of success in their same field.
Having a mentor helped those entrepreneurs cut their learning curve into shreds and allowed them to leverage the experiences and knowledge of their mentors.
You, too, must look for a mentor.
Why go down a long path of trial and error when you can work with a mentor who has already traveled that path and can help you reach your peak performance level with lightning speed?
The best mentoring method is to work one-on-one with the expert in person. But there are other types of mentoring, too. You can read books, listen to tapes, watch videos, or attend seminars of the best people in your field. Then, apply every idea they share with you to your own goals.
This secret is vital to your success. It just doesn’t make sense to reinvent the wheel. Other successful people have done it, and all you need to do is to find the best mentor out there and let him coach you and show you how to reach your peak performance level and achieve massive success.
To sum up, if you want to perform at your peak level, learn from the best.
Go out now and search for your first mentor. Set a goal, then look for the best mentor to help you reach that goal on the fastest path possible.
Successful people leave a trail of clues, and wise is the man who picks up those clues and leverages them to his best advantage.

What is your handshake worth?
My business gives me the opportunity to work with many wonderful people as a client and as a supplier of services. Some time back however, I found myself doubting. I have been doubting other people and their integrity. I found myself in the position where I was filtering all my interactions through the polarising lens of a few souring experiences. In this space and sense of doubting others I had felt unable to create words or metaphors which could possibly be of service to you. So what changed? Frankly, Brett Godfrey did.

Leaders Tell a Story
In the last week I have worked with 2 different people who are struggling to get their message across. They each have an idea and are being blocked by another persons’ apparent stubbornness. In each case when they analysed what was happening they discovered that the other person was not in fact being stubborn, but they were reacting emotionally to an inexpertly delivered message. What to do if you are being blocked.

Delegating - Only Do what Only you Can do
Several of my coaching clients have requested support with either time management or work life balance When we have a discovery conversation on their challenge there is generally much more to discuss on the topic of insufficient delegation. They're keeping excessive responsibilities, authority and duty to their and their company's detriment. Consequently they under perform at their own level. They hold themselves back or suffer from a lack of balance in their lives with too many hours at work.
