Redefining Human Performance: Why Empathy and Rest are Your Greatest Strategic Advantages

You are the high performer. The performance is the source of the chronic drive, the chronic chronic chronic ambition, the chronic sense of the never-quite-enough. The performance is also the source of the chronic chronic chronic neglect of the empathy and the rest, the chronic chronic chronic over-focus on the hustle, and the chronic sense of the never-quite-strategic that are the foundation of one of the most under-recognized, and most under-discussed, psychological phenomena in modern life. The phenomenon is the human performance deficit, and the deficit is the source of the chronic emotional dysregulation, the chronic chronic chronic physical exhaustion, and the chronic disconnection from the strategic empathy that are the foundation of the most under-developed, and most under-celebrated, character traits of modern performance life.

The redefining of the human performance is the practice of recognizing why the empathy and the rest are the strategic advantages. The redefining is the source of the emotional regulation, the strategic performance, and the meaningful life that are the foundation of the more engaged, more meaningful, more deeply strategic life.

What the Human Performance Deficit Is

The human performance deficit is the chronic, often unconscious, experience of the persistent over-focus on the hustle, the persistent chronic chronic neglect of the empathy and the rest, and the persistent sense of the never-quite-strategic. The deficit is the source of the chronic emotional dysregulation, the chronic chronic chronic physical exhaustion, and the chronic disconnection from the strategic empathy. The deficit is the source of the difficulty of the navigation.

Research on the empathy and the performance by various researchers has shown that the empathy is the source of the chronic performance, and the performance is the source of the chronic leadership. The leadership is the source of the meaningful life, and the meaningful life is the foundation of the more engaged, more meaningful, more deeply strategic life.

Research on the rest and the performance by various researchers has shown that the rest is the source of the chronic performance, and the performance is the source of the chronic resilience. The resilience is the source of the meaningful life, and the meaningful life is the foundation of the more engaged, more meaningful, more deeply strategic life.

When the Redefining Is the Right Move

It is important to say clearly: the redefining is the right move for the human performance deficit, the chronic over-focus on the hustle, and the chronic sense of the never-quite-strategic. The redefining is the wrong move when the deficit is the source of the medical condition, the chronic burnout, or the chronic stress that requires the professional intervention. The honest self-inquiry is whether the deficit is the source of the performance, or whether the deficit is the source of the medical condition. The first is the source of the engagement, and the second is the source of the professional attention.

The Takeaway

The redefining of the human performance is one of the most under-recognized, and most under-celebrated, insights in modern performance life. The insight is the source of the emotional regulation, the strategic performance, and the meaningful life that are the foundation of the more engaged, more meaningful, more deeply strategic life. The cure is not the more hustle. The cure is the strategic empathy, the strategic rest, and the empathy and the rest as the strategic advantages. The next time you feel the chronic deficit, pause long enough to use the empathy, to use the rest, and to engage with the redefining. The engagement is the source of the more meaningful, more strategic, more deeply sustainable life.
