traits
01
Self
-
Efficacy
A
grounded
belief
that
your
own
actions
will
produce
the
result

built
from
evidence
of
past
effort
,
not
from
optimism
alone
.

stays
stable
even
on
bad
days

treat
outcomes
as
things

become
variables

not
verdicts

know
precisely
what

what
you
are
not

Identity
Clarity
A

sense

your

put

your
stress
response
beyond
a
manageable
level
.

Tolerance
Delays
,
friction
,
and
obstacles
raise
your

of
exiting
it
.

move
toward
the
difficult

the
plan
breaks
