Elite performers don't manage stress. They eliminate the conditions that create it. Here's the system. Caitlin Clark gets a camera in her face after every single possession.

You're out here measuring chapter one against somebody's chapter twenty and calling yourself behind. You're not behind. You're just early. Stay in your own timeline.
