Last week I wrote about being irrationally confident. In retrospect, I failed to mention one important detail: the practice works best for people who are not ego-driven. If you are normally humble, then an occasional bout of irrational confidence can be highly useful... but if your ego is too big, then you routinely will be overestimating your abilities.
Another way to describe the ideal way to be is: practice grounded audacity.
Before you read any further, let me ask you this: are you favorably inclined to using the phrase "compassionate achiever" to describe you? Whether your answer is yes or no, I'd love to hear your initial reaction.
