Stephen Duneier tells you how in this TED Talk…
He’s rarely been able to focus on one thing for more than 10 minutes at a time. But with some clever hacks and smart decision making, he’s been able to achieve some incredible things.
If nothing else, watch the 2-minute stretch about tennis superstar Novak Djokovic starting at the 1:30 mark. That blew my mind 🤯
An excerpt…
Back when [Djokovic] was winning about 49% of the matches he was playing, he was winning about 49% of the points he played.
Then to… become number three in the world and actually earn $5M a year for swinging a racket, he had to improve his decision success rate to just 52%.
Then to become not just number one but maybe one of the greatest players to ever play the game, he had to improve his decision success rate to just 55%.
And I keep using this word “just.” I don’t want to imply this is easy to do. Clearly, it’s not.
But the type of marginal improvements that I’m talking about are easily achievable by every single one of us in this room.
