That’s not to say that everyone has to be attacked by a shark in order to gain some great perspective on life but a fact of being a human is that everyone will experience their own version of what Brett has been through. The key in getting through these experiences is knowing what to do in order to be resilient. Resilience is something that’s inside all of us and sometimes we need a little reminder of what that looks like. Here Brett shares the tools required to overcome some of life’s obstacles as he relates it to his recovery post shark attack and how he navigates the many challenges he faces in life today.

As humans, we often find ourselves in pursuit of high-performance habits or hacks that will lead to success, whether it be in our personal or professional lives. 

We’ve heard it all when it comes to these strategies and the more we look into them the more complicated they become, but it doesn’t need to be this complicated. As human beings, we have evolution to thank for our simplest and most effective tool when it comes to motivation and high performance and its roots are based on our instinct. This may seem like an odd way of looking at this, but looking at situations through a different lens is what someone like Brett does best as he explains how his near-death experience at the jaws of a great white shark helped him harness his instincts to not only defy the odds in his recovery but to excel in life from that point forward. 

Key Takeaways: 

Gain perspective on the role that instinct plays in helping us as humans achieve the best outcome 

Learn how to use instinct to create purposeful goals/direction in life, both personally and professionally 

Learn the framework to follow your purpose and achieve fulfilment and success
