Thanks for watching the last video on How to "Level-Up.”

I honor you/your team's desire to learn how to be world-class especially in moments that matter most to you.

There’s one thing you can start doing now that will help you to be world-class in what’s important to you: Deliberate Practice. Anders Ericsson has spent decades researching this very topic and has written an entire book on deliberate practice, Peak.

Here are the most important take aways that you can implement now:
