High Performance is a lifestyle. Adopting a lifestyle that values exercise, eating well, proper sleep, and promoting positive mental health will help you feel better. Research from the burgeoning field of positive psychology has suggested that while some of our happiness is indeed influenced by our genes and our external circumstances, a large part of it (up to 40%) might come from how we choose to approach our lives. Have fun, work hard, eat healthy, exercise, and show gratitude. Consciously appreciating things, experiences, and people around you can be surprisingly powerful. People who actively try to become more grateful live a happier and healthier life!
