From the Back Cover

What does stamina have to do with executive success? Consider the following: stamina gives you the ability to remain consistently focused on and energized about the task at hand. Being overworked, overstressed, and exhausted increases your chances of making career-damaging mistakes. With e-mail, text messages, and social networks increasingly blurring the line between work and personal life, stamina is no longer simply an asset for executives; it's an absolute necessity.

In Executive Stamina, you'll learn all the skills, techniques, and positive practices needed to create a sustainable path to achieve your full career potential. Renowned executive coach Marty Seldman and endurance coach Joshua Seldman will introduce you to the revolutionary training system they've used with great success on top executives and endurance athletes. You'll find hundreds of tips and tools that will help you maximize your career potential, while maintaining your health, staying in touch with your values, and avoiding costly tradeoffs in your personal life.

It starts by learning how to align your career ambitions with your core values, commitments, current priorities, and long-term goals. You'll learn to determine what is most important to you, whether your schedule is actually aligned with your priorities, and how to find your career sweet spot.

You'll build stamina and optimize your job performance through:

• Progressive workout plans
• Stamina-building nutrition programs
• A personalized stress-management plan
• Identifying high-payoff activities
• Taking control of your calendar
• Dealing with distracting people who waste your time
• Recognizing change and understanding its implications

You'll also find inspiring profiles of executives from a wide variety of industries, whose extraordinary stamina has enabled them to maintain consistently superior focus, judgment, and leadership skills. You'll discover the secrets of their personal success and be able to apply them in your own career.

Whether you're trying to make it through a grueling project in one piece or planning for a lifetime of repeated success, Executive Stamina is your key to developing and maintaining the physical, mental, and emotional power needed to come out on top.
