Peak Performance
Recommended by: Rich Roll
In general, the book is the exploration of the science of high performance—both in the athletic, work, and life sphere—and breaking down practices and habits that get successful people there. When mixed with such insights from other fields, the book is then able to show that there is increasingly a road map to sustained success weighed on rest, strategic work habits, and the psychology of performance.
