Productivity Without Recovery Will Leave You Empty

Robin Sharma Season 1 Episode 1157

Work less to make more is how the empire-creators roll. These men and women of high excellence understand the importance of working smart rather than working hard.

They get that lots of free time is where world-changing ideas incubate. They appreciate that elite performance without fantastic recovery leads to depletion of the very personal assets that can make you great.

This is what my latest book The Wealth Money Can’t Buy is all about. Real wealth versus fake success. True winning versus spending your life climbing a mountain, only to find out at the end that it was the wrong one. You can order it now by clicking here.

When you work, work really hard and intensely without distraction. Work like your life depends on it. And then pull back and enter what you'll see, the deep recovery cycle, the DRC. And that could be within one day where you work intensely, The Five Great Hour Rule. And then you shift to the deep recovery cycle. You go get a massage or you have a meal with a friend or you go for a nature walk. or you get on a mountain bike ride. It could be every week you take a day off, 24 hours, just having fun. It could be each year you take three months off. So nine months you're very disciplined and three months you're little sloppy. But at least every week run the Twin Cycles of Elite Performance where you take at least one day for adventure and renewal and recovery and rest and to enjoy the fruits of your labor.
