Key Takeaways: 

• Stress is there not to hurt you but to help you.
• Those people who believe that stress is good and helps them, and those who have the highest stress levels live the longest, healthiest, and most productive lives.
• The biggest challenge is not to start stressing about stress.
• if you just keep grinding forward as hard and fast as possible, you will not have space to get to effectiveness.

"So, if you do not stress about anything, the chance is very high that you have a bit of a lifeless life. What I've seen in research is that, well, and in my own life, the moments that I outperform myself were always the moments with the highest stress." – NICO.

"The reason that fighting was so addictive to me and so wonderful, and I miss it still every day, is that it is make or break. You know each other right now. It's a bit unhealthy for my body, and I learned through that process the second thing that puts the absolute top from the sub-top. You know, I was subbed up, and I had everything in me to get to the absolute top, but I forced it too much. I kept on grinding, I kept on going forward, and I lost a little bit of pleasure. That's why my company is called Perform with Pleasure." – NICO.

“Well, the people in sales, very often they're a specific type of people. They love the push, they love the grind, they go hard, they need their deadlines, they need fast movements, you know. So, very often this is like a temperament that very often is much more hypnotizable. Now in sales, a lot of people use it also, hypnotic techniques to sell. The problem that I've often found is that in the current market, people are much more suspicious, and then when you go with traditional hypnotic language patterns, they often don't work because it will sound weird, and people will feel something is off." – NICO.
