Aspirational & practical books for Peak Performance
All the books listed below fall into one or more of the following categories; Psychology of performance, overcoming adversity and human achievement. I’ve genuinely read or listened to all of them, typically in audiobook format on long solo trail runs or long drives. All the titles are linked to their respective Amazon page to give you the option to acquire them in the format that suits you best. I am not an Amazon affiliate, nor are any of the links. I do not receive any income from recommending these books, I’ve done so purely to highlight them as sources of learning and inspiration.
Drive by Dan Pink
In Drive, Daniel H. Pink challenges traditional ideas about motivation, arguing that true satisfaction comes from autonomy, mastery, and purpose. He explores how these elements drive high performance in work, school, and home environments. Through examples from innovative companies and insights from scientists, Pink presents a new approach to motivation that focuses on intrinsic human needs.
