The School of Greatness

Mikaela Shiffrin was throwing up before almost every race, drowning in performance anxiety no one could see.
The world's winningest alpine skier reveals why thinking about winning made her lose, how her mom taught her to master the mental game, and why she didn't want to break the all-time wins record.
She won a race by three seconds after an injury and the world called her slow for only winning the next one by seven tenths. Shiffrin opens up about the choking sensation that triggered her gag reflex, the sports psychologists who helped her reframe fear, and why she hopes people debate the greatest of all time forever.
This is about the gap between external success and internal struggle and what it takes to stay human under superhuman pressure.

Lewis shares how the main thing stopping you from manifesting isn't that you don't want it enough, but that you haven't gotten your inner self sorted out first.

Brendon Burchard shares a powerful truth most high performers miss: creating significant life changes is more dependent on an understanding of sociology than psychology.
While personal discipline and habits matter, the real breakthroughs happen when you surround yourself with people who see possibilities in you that you don't yet see in yourself. You're likely stuck not because something is wrong with you, but because you're an A player performing on a B field.
The path forward isn't about working harder or gaining more information. It's about investing in the right rooms, whether that's a mastermind, a volunteer group, or a team that elevates your thinking and challenges your timeline for what's possible.
