Product Information

Follow your passion” makes no sense, he says, what about “work on your passion” instead, excel at it, demand to become the best at it, and then follow through? Michael Jordan admitted he had butterflies before big games, to which Grover would reply to get them going in the same direction. Butterflies are not going away, but your task is to use them to make you better. A little box arrived for me and was sent by my good friend Ro who lives in San Francisco.

Just your and your internal pressure to prove yourself, over and over.

It’s been my experience in life that some of the most driven people I have seen were, beyond their rougher external shells, deeply insecure and sometimes troubled individuals. Cleaners control their dark side Contrary to the Cleaner, a Closer loves and seeks attention and credit and is always paying attention to what others are doing and what they’re thinking of him. Cleaners do the hardest thing first and they always focus on the destination, not on the hardship to get there.Anyone can have a great idea, but it’s what you do with that idea that defines you ( Seth Godin in Linchpin calls it the race to completion VS the resistance). I’d be insulted if someone said I had a clutch gene. It’s not a compliment when people say you step up for the big games. Where were you all the other games? Why weren’t you that solid and aggressive and effective all the time?” When you’re great, you trust your instincts. When you’re unstoppable, your instincts trust you. #4 – Your Dark Side Refuses To Be Taught Good Your Strategy is to get everyone on your level; you’re not going down to their level. YOU ARE ONLY COMPETING WITH YOURSELF. THEY ARE GOING TO HAVE TO COMPETE WITH YOU.
