You Can't Read the Label From Inside the Jar: How Leaders Regain Perspective Under Pressure
from Win More, Live Better · host Zach Brandon
Perspective is one of the easiest things to lose in high-pressure environments. In this episode, we explore the idea that “You can’t read the label from inside the jar" and why even the best coaches need support outside the pressure cooker. Drawing on examples from elite sport, insights from Atul Gawande, and my personal experience from professional baseball, this episode unpacks why perspective gets lost and why asking for help is not a weakness, but an enhancer for all of us.
