Experienced base jumpers and other extreme athletes share a guiding principle: selfawareness. The way you think and the choices you make determine who you are and who you become. If you know yourself you are decisive, you dare to take risks, you follow your own path and you are open to change. In this way, your fear can motivate you to push your limits. This principle also applies to professionals who strive for high performance from themselves and from their teams. If you want a positive drive behind your performance, and you really want to reach your next level, you must get to know yourself.
Dare to Jump helps you overcome your fear and offers three power skills in becoming the best version of yourself: a limitless mindset, a laser focus and creating trust. It teaches you why focus is the new IQ, how you can train yourself to get into a state of flow, and how to build trust without limits within your team.

In the second part of the book, you can put the theory into practice. You will find a complete 14-day meal plan plus additional recipes: a total of 75 delicious recipes prepared with natural wholefood ingredients and plenty of vegetables.
