so if you had subjected Napoli or
03:02
vice-president if they had sort of
03:05
objectives would something like time
03:10
spent with your Italy performance on the
03:14
job times been working out would you
03:19
break things down it's something more
03:22
measurable earn or metric base then say
03:25
if you're if you're in these metrics
03:27
then you're in pretty good shape
03:29

you want me as the counselor to say hey
04:57
it's even misinterpreted what if this
05:00
not that's often appearance on issues
05:09
and but that that progress that you
05:14
mentioned let's assume you and I sat
05:16
down together and then is that progress
05:20
based on some metrics like performance
05:23
or is it visited okay I want to feel
05:25
less anxiety your sentence my CQ on a
05:29
few lessons I play is it is it something
05:32
gently like that or is it you know I
05:35
want to be batting 350 or I want to
05:37
close million dollars of concerns well
05:42
it says to me the second one is slightly
05:44
more that's true the vice-president of
05:57
marketing as well manicured look the
05:59
branch or whatever Burbank so those
06:02
metrics are very important and the other
06:04
thing is the subjective experience
06:09
doesn't jive so you'll go out there
06:13
tennis and you'll have better PNG so
06:19
really just division that details about
06:21
my wishes smell languages but yeah
06:24
lightly help them when they can come to
06:26
look at themselves how did you have to
06:28
get out in the speeches like terrifying
06:36
really there was like you look at that
06:46
and police nothing at that sort of we've
06:48
been analyzed the fight
06:51
it still
06:58
how do you advise people especially
07:01
athletes to use that fear abd let's talk
07:05
about two different types of altitude
07:07
let's talk about high school those two
07:30
different groups because bring them to
08:32
see me yeah and young athletes must not
08:38
realize that the individual they will
08:41
stop

10:50
yes
11:32
it's okay so funny but to realize that
12:24
all these balls some pretty good
12:29
scholarship just I've been so bit like
12:39
that's gonna pay off without an injury
12:43
what you know what appropriately away
12:45
from that thing is really rat you know
12:48
there's a kid something sighs they don't
12:50
like me they much more diversity in jest
12:54
but think without whatever it's not
12:56
trying to get that message across and
12:59
and have to realize what it did you eat
13:02
happy to some confidence a muffin is
13:05
being good it's up to maybe like
13:08
