We, in our Western world, we build this performance-based identity.

And again, I want to reinforce that'll help you get good, but at some point it becomes problematic.

We say we value authenticity.

We say we value truth tellers.

We say we value, you know, the uniqueness of a person.

But when that becomes prickly, when that becomes uncomfortable to others, not because of out of kindness, but because sometimes the truth is hard to hear, we don't like it.

So we say in business, fail fast, fail forward, fail often, learn, learn, learn, let's go.

But when people make mistakes and they fail, we don't like it.

So we speak out of two sides of our mouth about what we really want.

And so authenticity is said to be valued, but where do we go to learn how to do that?

And once we learn who we really are,

Where do we go learn the mental skills to navigate that sense in a highly volatile, uncertain, complex, the VUCA environment?

So that's the whole psychology of excellence.

You put those two together with a skill.
