Jake Humphrey and Professor Damian Hughes introduce their new book, "High Performance: Lessons from the Best, on Becoming Your Best."

Jake reflects on his journey from an average student with no clear career path to a successful TV presenter and producer. He credits his A-level exam failure as the catalyst for his growth and success.

Jake's first job in television was at Rapture TV, where he gained valuable experience and learned the importance of persistence and adaptability. He realized that success is not solely determined by natural talent but also by hard work, a winner's mindset, and supportive mentors.

Jake's experiences with high achievers in various fields led him to create the High Performance Podcast, where he explores the psychology and behaviors of successful individuals. He emphasizes the importance of embracing failure and learning from it, as well as surrounding oneself with positive influences.

Damian Hughes, a professor of psychology, joined the podcast to provide scientific insights into high performance. He highlights the role of motivation, self-belief, and goal-setting in achieving success.

The book "High Performance" is a culmination of the lessons learned from the podcast, offering practical strategies for readers to improve their performance and achieve their goals. It covers topics such as overcoming setbacks, developing a growth mindset, and creating a supportive network.

Jake and Damian encourage listeners to pre-order the book, which will be available in December. They emphasize the book's potential to impact lives and help readers turbocharge their personal and professional growth by learning from the experiences of successful individuals.

[00:00.000 -> 00:03.920] Every year, one thing is always predictable. Postage costs go up.

[00:39.600 -> 00:44.240] why when I found Mint Mobile I had to share. So Mint Mobile ditched retail
[00:44.240 -> 00:46.100] stores and all those overhead costs
[00:46.100 -> 00:49.000] and instead sells their phone plans online
[00:49.000 -> 00:51.160] and passes those savings to you.
[00:51.160 -> 00:52.360] And for a limited time,
[00:52.360 -> 00:53.980] they're passing on even more savings
[00:53.980 -> 00:55.200] with a new customer offer
[00:55.200 -> 00:58.980] that cuts all Mint Mobile plans to $15 a month
[00:58.980 -> 01:00.960] when you purchase a three month plan.
[01:00.960 -> 01:08.040] That's unlimited talk, text, and data for $15 a month and by the way
[01:08.040 -> 01:12.480] the quality of Mint Mobile's wireless service in comparison to providers that
[01:12.480 -> 01:17.640] we've worked with before is incredible. Mint Mobile is here to rescue you with
[01:17.640 -> 01:21.960] premium wireless plans for 15 bucks a month so say goodbye to your overpriced

[01:25.080 -> 01:29.560] unexpected overages, because all the plans come with unlimited talk and text and high
[01:29.560 -> 01:35.600] speed data delivered on the nation's largest 5G network. Use your own phone with any Mint
[01:35.600 -> 01:40.040] Mobile plan, bring your phone number along with all your existing contacts.

[02:09.840 -> 02:12.200] Hi, welcome along to another bite-sized episode
[02:12.200 -> 02:13.800] of the High Performance Podcast.
[02:13.800 -> 02:16.980] Now, normally we will either play a clip from the podcast

[03:40.320 -> 03:41.280] byddwn i'n mynd i ddysgu'n fyn.
[03:41.280 -> 03:42.880] Ac dyma'r cyflwyniad.
[03:42.880 -> 03:44.760] Dim peth yn cael ei gysylltu.
[03:44.760 -> 03:47.480] Mae'r ffailio wedi newid fy bywyd. Roedd yn y 90au'r blynedd. I'll read mine and here it is. Nothing is fixed. Failure changed my life.
[03:47.480 -> 03:50.080] It was the mid-90s, I'd just finished my A-levels
[03:50.080 -> 03:51.600] and I had my life mapped out.
[03:51.600 -> 03:53.880] Nobody thought I was on track for greatness,
[03:53.880 -> 03:55.640] least of all myself.
[03:55.640 -> 03:58.740] I'd been the epitome of average at my school in Norwich.
[03:58.740 -> 04:00.380] I wasn't on any sports teams.
[04:00.380 -> 04:02.760] I wasn't part of any societies or clubs.
[04:02.760 -> 04:04.020] I couldn't act or sing.
[04:04.020 -> 04:08.200] In fact, I was so average, I'd been fired from McDonald's
[04:08.200 -> 04:12.180] a few months previously for a lack of communication skills.
[04:12.180 -> 04:13.840] Their words, not mine.
[04:13.840 -> 04:16.640] Life wasn't awful, but it wasn't amazing either.
[04:16.640 -> 04:19.140] And so my horizons were pretty narrow.
[04:19.140 -> 04:21.420] I had a place lined up at the University of Nottingham
[04:21.420 -> 04:22.480] to study media.
[04:22.480 -> 04:26.660] After that, I was planning to get a job back in my hometown, maybe for the local newspaper
[04:26.660 -> 04:29.040] or something, but it was a vague plan.
[04:29.040 -> 04:34.240] The details of how exactly I was going to get that job were pretty woolly, but somehow
[04:34.240 -> 04:35.680] it felt like my destiny.
[04:35.680 -> 04:39.940] I never dreamed of a career that would take me much further than Norwich or Norfolk, let
[04:39.940 -> 04:41.940] alone around the world.
[04:41.940 -> 04:49.400] After a summer of drinking in East Anglia and holidaying in Faleraki, it was finally A-level results day, so I clambered into my mum's pistachio green
[04:49.400 -> 04:56.900] VW Polo and I drove to get my results. My younger brother was with me, and upon arriving
[04:56.900 -> 05:01.760] at the 1950s complex that housed my run-down state school, I made my way to the table for
[05:01.760 -> 05:07.520] students whose surnames started with H. As I was past the envelope, I prepared myself for what was on the page,
[05:07.520 -> 05:10.720] fully expecting grades good enough to get my university place.
[05:10.720 -> 05:17.440] I needed BCC. I got ENU.
[05:17.440 -> 05:21.440] I didn't even know what an N was. I was told by a teacher that it stands for narrow,
[05:21.440 -> 05:24.840] as in I'd narrowly missed getting an E, but I'd still failed.
[05:24.840 -> 05:32.600] A total disaster. Or so I thought. Today I actually believe that those awful
[05:32.600 -> 05:36.940] grades were the single best thing that's ever happened to me. Weeks later, having processed
[05:36.940 -> 05:41.460] my failure and apologised to my parents a few thousand times, I was back at school studying
[05:41.460 -> 05:47.240] for my retakes. During my first week back, my politics teacher, Mr Brogan, read out a letter that had been
[05:47.240 -> 05:52.120] sent to our politics class, and it invited students to appear on a new cable channel,
[05:52.120 -> 05:54.680] Rapture TV, to talk about political issues.
[05:54.680 -> 06:01.000] Now, despite my massive exam humiliation, I was young, naive, and inexplicably certain
[06:01.000 -> 06:08.500] that I would make an excellent pundit, so I jumped at the opportunity to work in TV. The next week I rocked up at Rapture's office wearing the same 90
[06:08.500 -> 06:12.360] staple of a sweater shop top and baggy jeans and I told them about my fast food
[06:12.360 -> 06:16.500] sacking and my A-level catastrophe and then just said I'd love to give the
[06:16.500 -> 06:19.640] channel a hand and I promised to do anything and everything, not just
[06:19.640 -> 06:23.360] pining on politics but making tea, operating the phones, whatever they
[06:23.360 -> 06:25.520] needed. And they agreed.
[06:25.520 -> 06:27.880] They needed all the help they could get.
[06:27.880 -> 06:33.600] And suddenly there I was, working for Rapture for five pounds cash each weekend.
[06:33.600 -> 06:37.240] Now two decades on, I guess it's tempting to think that this moment was somehow part
[06:37.240 -> 06:42.340] of my destiny, the first step in some inevitable path into life in television.
[06:42.340 -> 06:43.380] But it wasn't.
[06:43.380 -> 06:47.340] In the wake of my A-level cock-up, I had no real life plan, let alone any understanding
[06:47.340 -> 06:48.640] of how TV worked.
[06:48.640 -> 06:53.420] My cash-in-hand job was not the result of some grand strategy.
[06:53.420 -> 06:54.420] It was luck.
[06:54.420 -> 06:57.600] But it turned out to be the start of something great.
[06:57.600 -> 07:01.640] Even though Rapture would go bust a few years later, I remember my days there fondly.
[07:01.640 -> 07:04.560] It was the first time in a TV studio, and I loved it, man.
[07:04.560 -> 07:06.560] The hustle and bustle of the production,
[07:06.560 -> 07:08.200] the excitement of going on air,
[07:08.200 -> 07:11.800] but more importantly, the experience caused me
[07:11.800 -> 07:14.600] to reconsider my approach to success.
[07:14.600 -> 07:18.000] You see, my A-level disaster and my Rapture TV recovery
[07:18.000 -> 07:20.680] was the very first time that I started to think
[07:20.680 -> 07:24.400] about what it actually meant to achieve your potential.
[07:24.400 -> 07:27.460] Until then, I thought that success in life was simple.
[07:27.460 -> 07:29.340] You either had talent or you didn't.
[07:29.340 -> 07:30.920] And if you did, life would be easy.
[07:30.920 -> 07:32.980] If you didn't, life would be hard.
[07:32.980 -> 07:37.140] This principle led some people to lives of unimaginable success and others to lives of
[07:37.140 -> 07:38.580] mundanity.
[07:38.580 -> 07:41.620] That's why until that point I had so little ambition.
[07:41.620 -> 07:50.760] If I wasn't naturally talented and I wasn't, well there was nothing I could do about it, life was set. My job at Rapture made me see things differently.
[07:50.760 -> 07:55.360] I'd failed my A-levels but I'd got back up on my feet. By failing, I'd discovered new
[07:55.360 -> 08:01.240] possibilities. If the biggest failure in my entire life had led to this exciting opportunity,
[08:01.240 -> 08:06.000] what else could failure teach me? That experience marked the very beginning of my journey to writing this book,
[08:06.000 -> 08:11.000] and as my career progressed from Rapture TV to the BBC and then BT Sport,
[08:11.000 -> 08:15.000] I found myself surrounded by people who'd realised their dreams.
[08:15.000 -> 08:19.000] I reported from Formula One pit lanes, Olympic stadiums, Champions League finals,
[08:19.000 -> 08:23.000] had lunch with Lewis Hamilton, shared a TV screen with Michael Johnson,
[08:23.000 -> 08:27.520] I even went to a reception at 10 Downing Street.
[08:27.520 -> 08:29.480] Every day I was lucky enough to spend time
[08:29.480 -> 08:33.560] with world-beating athletes, entrepreneurs, and creatives.
[08:33.560 -> 08:34.800] Now the old me would have thought
[08:34.800 -> 08:36.840] that these people were just born high achievers,
[08:36.840 -> 08:38.880] that they had something that I didn't,
[08:38.880 -> 08:40.520] but the more time I spent with them,
[08:40.520 -> 08:42.880] the more wrong I realized I was.
[08:42.880 -> 08:46.840] Sure, many of these individuals had natural skill, but that wasn't how they'd achieved
[08:46.840 -> 08:47.840] their success.
[08:47.840 -> 08:51.360] There are tons of people with talent, and not all of them make it.
[08:51.360 -> 08:57.720] In time, I realised that the high achievers I met had triumphed thanks to their own persistence.
[08:57.720 -> 09:00.520] They'd kept their motivation up through dozens of setbacks.
[09:00.520 -> 09:04.460] They'd worked hard to develop a winner's mindset and winner's habits.
[09:04.460 -> 09:08.000] They'd surrounded themselves with people who encouraged them to be their best.
[09:08.000 -> 09:13.000] In short, they had turned themselves into high performers.
[09:13.000 -> 09:17.000] It was the same lesson that I'd learned after my A-level fiasco.
[09:17.000 -> 09:20.000] To unlock your potential, you don't need to be a born leader.
[09:20.000 -> 09:24.000] You just need to be ready to try, fail, try again.
[09:24.000 -> 09:28.420] Over the past 20 years, this insight has changed my life.
[09:28.420 -> 09:30.540] It's what led me to take some of the biggest risks
[09:30.540 -> 09:33.100] of my career, whether that was auditioning for a job
[09:33.100 -> 09:36.140] at the Beeb in 2001, founding our production company,
[09:36.140 -> 09:38.780] Whisper in 2010 with my wife and a friend,
[09:38.780 -> 09:41.220] or totally upending my entire career
[09:41.220 -> 09:44.380] to join Upstart's BT Sport in 2013.
[09:46.680 -> 09:51.520] Now along the way, I've had my fair share of failures some of them humiliating but in the end I managed to achieve more
[09:51.520 -> 09:55.440] than I ever thought possible winning awards for my presenting, fronting some
[09:55.440 -> 09:59.040] of the world's biggest sporting events and turning Whisper into a company with
[09:59.040 -> 10:04.200] hundreds of staff and turnover in the tens of millions. I had uncovered the
[10:04.200 -> 10:07.440] greatest secret of high performance.
[10:07.440 -> 10:10.040] The teenage me had been completely wrong.
[10:10.040 -> 10:11.800] Nothing is fixed.
[10:11.800 -> 10:14.800] And you can change almost anything about you
[10:14.800 -> 10:16.520] if you really want to.
[10:16.520 -> 10:19.160] And it was this principle that led to the creation
[10:19.160 -> 10:22.600] of the High Performance Podcast, and ultimately this book.
[10:22.600 -> 10:25.360] In the late 2010s, I realized I was entering
[10:25.360 -> 10:27.800] my third decade as a television presenter.
[10:27.800 -> 10:31.040] I'd learned so much from the high performers I'd met.
[10:31.040 -> 10:33.280] They hadn't just taught me that we can all change our lives,
[10:33.280 -> 10:34.920] they'd shown me how to do it.
[10:34.920 -> 10:36.680] And I realized it was high time to share
[10:36.680 -> 10:38.560] what they taught me with the world.
[10:38.560 -> 10:41.440] My team and I decided to create a podcast
[10:41.440 -> 10:43.280] that examined the outlook of the world's
[10:43.280 -> 10:45.140] highest achieving people
[10:45.140 -> 10:46.840] and that we could all learn from them.
[10:46.840 -> 10:48.560] Like a nice idea, right,
[10:48.560 -> 10:51.000] but quite a complicated one to execute.
[10:51.000 -> 10:53.600] We soon realized that getting the most
[10:53.600 -> 10:55.280] out of our interviewees wouldn't just mean
[10:55.280 -> 10:57.880] hearing their stories, it would involve digging deep
[10:57.880 -> 11:00.400] into their psychology and their behavior.
[11:00.400 -> 11:03.260] And soon I realized I needed someone to help me understand
[11:03.260 -> 11:04.880] the science behind high performance.
[11:04.880 -> 11:05.300] After all, I was the kid, don't forget, And soon I realized I needed someone to help me understand the science behind high-performance after all
[11:05.300 -> 11:10.520] I was the kid don't forget who got e and you at a level this podcast
[11:11.060 -> 11:18.200] Didn't just need a presenter. It also needed a professor and that's where Damien Hughes came in
[11:20.260 -> 11:29.000] That was brilliant, thanks Damien then we go on to onto your introduction and I Iawn, dwi'n credu bod y ffynon Simon Sinek yn ddweud bod y cynnydd sy'n dechrau gyda'r ddau, ac dyna pam rydw i'n meddwl bod y ddau yn y pwll o'r podcast y mae pobl yn mynd i'w gwrando arno.
[11:29.000 -> 11:32.000] Felly rwy'n credu bod yn bwysig i bobl ddeall hynny,
[11:32.000 -> 11:35.000] ond i ni i gyd i fynd yn ôl i'r ffynon Simon Sinek,
[11:35.000 -> 11:37.000] mae'n bwysig i ni i gyd i ddweud,
[11:37.000 -> 11:38.000] dwi'n credu,
[11:38.000 -> 11:40.000] mae'n bwysig i ni i ddweud,
[11:40.000 -> 11:42.000] mae'n bwysig i ni i ddweud,
[11:42.000 -> 11:44.000] mae'n bwysig i ni i ddweud,
[11:44.000 -> 11:45.280] mae'n bwysig i ni i ddweud, mae'n bwwl bod hynny'r sylw ar ôl y podcast hwn rydyn ni'n clywed ar hynny nawr.
[11:45.280 -> 11:48.480] Felly rwy'n credu ei fod yn bwysig i bobl ddeall hynny,
[11:48.480 -> 11:51.040] ond i ni fynd yn ôl i'r oergeinion o hyn
[11:51.040 -> 11:53.760] a mynd i'r gweithredu o hynny.
[11:54.400 -> 11:56.160] Felly dylai i mi gofyn i chi hyn yma, iawn.
[11:56.800 -> 11:59.040] Rwy'n cofio pan rwy'n rhan o chi a gofyn i chi fod yn rhan o hyn,
[11:59.040 -> 12:00.560] roeddwn i'n mynd i'r Celsi Flower Show
[12:00.560 -> 12:02.000] ac roeddwn i'n gobeithio'n fwyaf i chi ddweud,
[12:02.000 -> 12:03.280] rwy'n bysyg, dydw i ddim yn cael y tro,
[12:03.280 -> 12:04.640] ond ddiolch yn fawr, dywedwch, ie.
[12:05.280 -> 12:08.480] Roeddech chi o gwmpas, yn wahanol i'n fywyd, o gwmpas
[12:08.480 -> 12:10.800] ymgyrch, ym Mhrofi Manchester, rydych chi wedi
[12:10.800 -> 12:12.640] ysgrifennu nifer o llyfrgell, dydych chi'n ymgyrchwr,
[12:12.640 -> 12:14.640] ar gyfer gwybodaeth.
[12:14.640 -> 12:17.760] A ydych chi wedi dysgu pethau y gyda'ch ni ddim yn sylw
[12:17.760 -> 12:20.160] oedd ar y cyfleoedd cyhoeddiol, neu a oes gennych chi
[12:20.160 -> 12:22.560] ychydig pethau y gyda'ch chi'n gwybod?
[12:22.560 -> 12:25.600] Na, mae wedi bod yn profiad dysgu e gwybod? Na, mae wedi bod yn profiad dysgu eithaf fawr.
[12:25.600 -> 12:29.040] Mae'n fel gwneud ymdrech arall yn gyhoeddi.
[12:29.040 -> 12:32.000] Rwy'n credu, dim ond y pethau rydych chi'n clywed,
[12:32.000 -> 12:34.160] o ran ystod y cyfeillgareddau o bobl,
[12:34.160 -> 12:35.920] fel yn aml yn y gymdeithas, mae pobl yn dweud,
[12:35.920 -> 12:37.920] ie, mae'n gweithio yn y ddra.
[12:37.920 -> 12:38.960] Efallai y bydd yn gweithio mewn prifatiaeth,
[12:38.960 -> 12:40.080] ond beth yw'r ddra?
[12:40.080 -> 12:41.120] Ac rwy'n credu ein bod ni'n mynd at hyn
[12:41.120 -> 12:42.720] o'r ystod gwahanol i ddweud,
[12:42.720 -> 12:44.880] dwi'n mynd i siarad ag y bobl sydd yno
[12:44.880 -> 12:47.360] ac fe wnawn ni gweithio i ddeall y ddra o'i gilydd, ond mae'n credu ein bod ni'n mynd at hyn o anghywir i ddweud, gadewch i ni siarad â phobl sy'n ymwneud â hynny ac fe wnawn ni gweithio i ddeall y teori o'i gynnyrch,
[12:47.360 -> 12:51.560] ond mae'n llawer iawn sut mae pobl yn cymryd y cwrsiau hyn a'u cymryd
[12:51.560 -> 12:54.160] mewn nifer o ffyrdd o wahanol ffyrdd o wahanol ffyrdd
[12:54.160 -> 12:58.760] mae wedi bod yn profiad a ddysgu yn anhygoel i mi.
[12:58.760 -> 13:01.960] Dwi'n ddim yn ddiddorol, Damien, fod wedi cael effaith ar eich bywyd
[13:01.960 -> 13:06.800] ac rwy'n gobeithio y bydd y llyfr hwn yn cael effaith ar y bywydau o'r bobl sy'n clywed y podcast hon ac efallai ar y bywydau o'r bobl sy'n bywydau a ddim wedi clywed y podcast o'r cyffredinau cyffredinol. that it's had an impact on your life.

[13:22.680 -> 13:24.640] and you're thinking to yourself,
[13:24.640 -> 13:29.560] you know, how do I turbocharge my life based on what Olympic winning athletes
[13:29.560 -> 13:33.200] have learned? How do multi-millionaire business people develop those habits of
[13:33.200 -> 13:37.360] champions? How do Premier League football coaches lead their teams to victory and
