Kindle Notes & Highlights
In fact, some of the brightest kids prove to be the most vulnerable to becoming helpless, because they feel the need to live up to and maintain a perfectionist image that is easily and inevitably shattered.
The key, in my opinion, is to recognize that the beauty of those roses lies in their transience.
At a high level, pressing for wins in equal positions often results in losing.
I believe that one of the most critical factors in the transition to becoming a conscious high performer is the degree to which your relationship to your pursuit stays in harmony with your unique disposition.
