Show Highlights:







It’s important as individuals to understand what your stresses and recoveries are. My stress might be a recovery for you, and my recovery might be stress for you. -Dr. LylesIf I don’t understand where my power comes from–mentally, emotionally, spiritually, physically–I might have power surges, which means I now have to do what I do at a slower pace to conserve energy. -Dr. LylesWhen you’re driven by passion and excitement, you’ll do whatever you need to do to make it work. -Dr. LylesThere is no success without failure, and the only failure is when you quit. -Dr. LylesMy first affirmation in the morning is: I am grateful for another day. -Dan MooreYou have to know why you want to do something, not just how. A lot of people can learn how to build something or how to do something. But if you don’t know why you want to do it, you may never finish it. -Dr. LylesIf you lose your focus, your drive, and your passion for something, the music and the magic goes away. -Dr LylesYou need a plan, you need goals, and you need a great network of people. It takes an army to do things. Even a SWAT team will have multiple members. -Dr. LylesIf you know WHY and you know HOW, you can’t quit. -Dr. Lyles







Dr. Lyles’ closing thoughts: We’ve re-released my book, Good Stress, as a foundation for my upcoming book, Performance Under Pressure. Good Stress is all about taking stress and making it good, and then how do you live younger longer throughout your life?
