Imagine that your life depends on the success of a surgery. What qualities would you want your surgeon to have? These are the same qualities that will help you handle pressure like a pro.
- Suppose your life depended on the success of a surgery.…Your life is in the hands of a surgeon.…Their performance will determine your fate.…Expectations are high.…The level of risk is high.…They are in a pressure situation.…On the day of your big surgery,…what would you like to see from your surgeon?…How would you feel if they showed up tired and distracted?…Would it be okay if they had a worried look on their face…as they rolled you into the operating room?…Is it all right if this person…looks like they hate their job?…How would it make you feel if they appeared rigid, bug-eyed,…if they held so much breath…that they look like a balloon ready to pop?…When your life is at stake,…when you're counting on a surgeon…to keep you healthy and alive,…you want a person that's focused,…a person that's relaxed,…but we also want them to be intent on being successful.…
A focused intensity.…We hope they've practiced this surgery many times,…but we don't want them to be on autopilot.…They need to be in the moment.…We want them fully aware of the situation at all times.…
