Learned Excellence: Mental Disciplines for Leading and Winning from the World’s Top Performers

Learn how to perform at your very best, from the psychologist who has advised elite military operators, Olympic medalists, big wave surfers, neurosurgeons, cliff divers, first responders, Cirque du Soleil acrobats, professional athletes and coaches, Fortune 500 business executives, and CIA analysts.

Learned Excellence is a comprehensive and practical guide to the mental disciplines of high performance, from the expert who developed the US Navy SEALs mental toughness curriculum and has worked with thousands of top athletes, elite military personnel, business executives, and first responders.

These stars perform across a wide variety of fields, but they all have something in common: when they are at work they know how to think clearly, stay focused, and shrug off setbacks under very high levels of stress. They may have superb physical and intellectual traits, but it is the stuff going on above the neck and between the ears that makes them excellent. The difference between settling and achieving, between good and great, between contentment and fulfillment, is based entirely on their mental approach.

This approach isn’t innate; it is 100% learned. The world’s top performers aren’t born that way, they learn excellence. So can everyone else, and Dr. Eric Potterat can teach us.

One of the world’s leading performance psychologists and a retired US Navy Commander, Dr. Potterat has spent over three decades helping thousands of top performers from the military, sports, first responder, and business worlds improve. He served as the lead psychologist for the US Navy SEALs and the Los Angeles Dodgers, and has consulted with the US Women’s National Soccer team, the Miami Heat, Red Bull athletes, NASA astronauts, and dozens of Olympic medalists.

In Learned Excellence, Eric distills the insights he’s learned into five mental disciplines for high performance—Values & Goals, Mindset, Process, Adversity Tolerance, and Balance & Recovery. Illustrated with numerous stories and quotes, Learned Excellence features clear principles and practices that anyone can use to raise their game.

Start building bridges instead of barriers! This essential guide offers a simple 5-part framework that will help you have honest and enlightening conversations despite deep and fundamental disagreements.

Divisions are on the rise around the world, and 2024 may well be a peak year. We’re losing the ability to disagree without dehumanizing. There is a deep need for this practical and accessible guide to having challenging conversations in any situation, from the workplace to the classroom to the dinner table.

It’s not about saying the right words at the right time but something vastly deeper. In this book, you’ll discover the 5 pillars of respectfully disagreeing:
● Challenge your perspective
● Be the student
● Cultivate your curiosity
● Seek the gray
● Agree to respect

But this is not a weighty tome. Each chapter features a cartoon, and Justin Jones-Fosu tackles this serious subject with a playful and compassionate tone. For example, he writes “I have become more and more intentional in my desire to respectfully disagree with others (except those who think putting ketchup on eggs is wrong…there is no hope for respect there).”

With a wide range of examples and exercises throughout, this is a timely and reader-friendly handbook to disagreeing with someone’s ideology while passionately pursuing their humanity.

★暢銷作家艾爾文首本知識型自我成長作品！
★貫通人生五大領域，受用一生的人生改變法則！
★心理學X行為經濟學，你最需要的全方位習慣養成書！

艾爾文很早就認知到「習慣」對人生有重大影響，
於是他從各類科學研究著手，對習慣的鑽研已超過十年以上，
從探索理論到實作方法，他逐步累積一套系統性步驟，並將其應用在自己身上，
成為親身體會透過微小習慣的改變，走向人生蛻變的最佳實證。

從他學生時代考研究所的經驗，再到竹科工程師時期透過習慣累積帶得走的能力，
讓他即使離開穩定的高薪工作都能不慌亂、穩步朝著想要的人生方向前進，
先是出版了理財書籍，再跨領域成為心靈勵志書作家，更兩度成為年度十大暢銷作家。

習慣紅利帶來的效益，不只體現在艾爾文的生活與工作上，
在他想斜槓到不同工作領域時，更產生了莫大助益！
二〇一七年開始經營YouTube影音頻道的他，絲毫沒有影片製作、腳本企劃經驗，
更別說從沒碰過專業影音剪輯軟體，此外還要在鏡頭前侃侃而談。
但不出一個月，他的頻道已上軌道，九個月後訂閱人數更突破十萬，至今早超過七十萬大關。

為何他能在不同領域間轉換自如、看似毫不費力？其實就是「習慣紅利」的力量！
他早已養成系統化做事的習慣，知道用最少的時間完成最重要的事，
發展頻道的同時，寫作、出版與其他原本工作都按計畫進行著。

看似微小且無形，卻一直牽動著人生，這正是習慣帶來的影響。
就算一開始只是微小的付出，長久卻能帶來巨大的改變，正是累積習慣紅利的好處。
而這些微小習慣將會引導養成更多好習慣，最終成為改變人生的核心習慣；
無論是生活習慣、工作習慣、金錢習慣等領域都將出現明顯的成效。
