Sense of Self
Generators - impact other people (believe they change the world)
Projectors - reflect on what they see
Types of energy
neural and caloric
Building habits / unconscious mind
things suck at first but once your mind builds the repetitiveness and automates, your brain works at a higher rate which makes deliberate stuff easier
example rucking
walking with weight for a long time
sucks at first but gets easier and can do all day
Detaching from the mob mentality
as a leader, your team could sway certain ways due to events and it’s your job to bring them back to the base lines (generally countering the mob mentality)
eg. winning high - “that was great, we did xyz right. There are some abc that we need to debrief on to do better”
eg. losing slump - “That was tough. Didn’t go the way we wanted it to go. We need to learn some lessons. Here are some things I could do better. What can we do better to make sure this doesn’t happen again”
