In her book Ballsy, the very talented and clever author Karen Salamansohn writes: “There are no wishy-washy rock stars. No wishy-washy astronauts. No wishy-washy Nobel Prize winners. No wishy-washy CEOs.” As a matter of fact, everybody in the super-high achiever category is pushy, demanding, impatient, intolerant, prone to losing their cool, screaming, throwing things, and sending the weak-minded and weak-willed scurrying for cover. Most of us simply have no time to be gentle.
