‘Life is a performance that I’m in charge of’ says Mark Sanborn in his book The Encore Effect. As the author of many great books including the Fred Factor, Mark shares great insights in this book.

A few of our favorite keepers from this book you might enjoy include:
- Change your practices not your principles
- Performances matter, they have an impact on people in our lives
- Do the important jobs or tasks you have to perform before turning out the light tonight remarkably (even if you are alone), even if there is no one there to watch you
- There are no time-outs when it comes to our performance in life. All it takes is an instant to touch someone – or to underestimate a lifetime of good performance.
Great performances, says Mark:
‘Move us to act
Make us feel good
Cause us to laugh
Stimulate us to think.’
This led me to question my everyday ‘performance’ and wondered if you might also consider:
- Does your ‘performance’ make people act? Do you do things on a daily basis that cause others to take positive action?
- Does your performance change the lives of people around you?
- How can we make our performance bigger, better, bolder?
