Michael Gervais spent 25 years coaching world-class athletes and discovered that fear of other people's opinions is more powerful than most realise it is.
He explains why our brains are still running prehistoric programming and why the best in the world treat psychology like a separate skill to train, not a weakness. The uncomfortable truth about entrepreneurship and growth, it requires tolerating cold air on your skin, and most people retreat the moment it hurts.
