Shane Parrish told us the same technique of imagine you're on your deathbed and you're in a coma and all your loved ones around you.
What do you want them to say?
These are all the things that just get us out of the immediate moment and cast us forward enough into the future to go, what's your legacy going to be?
And it will not be about your achievements.
It'll be about the way that you left people feeling in your company.
You know what pops into my head when I was listening to you say that?
Billy Munger.
Yeah, so again, the Hector Garcia book on Ikigai, we spoke to Hector, that's a really good book to read.
Another book if you're maybe more of my vintage and age, David Brooks wrote a book called The Second Mountain, which is like once you've sort of got to a stage in life where you start thinking about

Well, here we go with another episode of High Performance, and this month it's the Enhanced Games.
And so we thought we would have a bit of a conversation about, I guess, doping in sport, but with the umbrella view of what happens in life where you start out in your career, regardless of whether it's sport or something else, with a really kind of fixed set of rules that you want to operate by.
And then what happens to your moral compass as your career progresses that means those things get impacted?
And we've got a really cool guest we're about to hear from, right?
Great.
Well, we'll hear from James in just a couple of moments, but I think how about we start the episode by delving into some of the previous guests who've joined us who have had a clear moral compass, but actually it's impacted their careers.
