I find most people are successful, like you just said it, you have clarity. When I say that and speak in engagement, I say, what are your two to five words that you stand for? What is your night? You just do it, FUBU for us, bias, white cast is what you crave. Many people have to wonder what their two to five words are. And I would say to them, well, if you don't know what you stand for, when you walk into a room, you leave it up to us to interpret who you are.

And many people really don't know who they are because they've been living so much to be somebody else, for somebody else.

All right, welcome back or welcome to the Finding Mastery podcast. I'm Michael Gervais. By trade and training, I'm a high-performing psychologist, which means that I spend time understanding the science and the art of helping people train their minds to become their very best. And the idea behind these podcasts, these conversations, is to extend that learning, to learn from people who are on the path of mastery, to better understand what they're searching for, and to understand their psychological framework, how they understand themselves, the world, events, and then how they see themselves playing a role in becoming their very best. And part of that process is understanding the mental skills that they've used to build and refine their craft.

I wanna take a minute here to announce a really exciting event that we have coming up. As you continue to navigate the challenges and opportunities of 2024, I wanna pose a question. What are you doing right now to be great with stress? How are you working with stress on your pursuit towards your most important ambitions and goals? And I just wanna get right to the heart of the key elements, one in particular, for what it takes to excel in today's high heat, high stakes world.
