A USA Today Bestseller High-performance psychologist Michael Gervais presents a
groundbreaking guide for overcoming what may be the single greatest constrictor
of human potential: our fear of peoples opinions (FOPO). FOPO shows up almost
everywhere in our livesand the consequences are great. When we let FOPO take
control, we play it safe and small because we're afraid of what will happen on
the other side of critique. When challenged, we surrender our viewpoint. We
trade in authenticity for approval. We please rather than provoke. We chase the
dreams of others rather than our own. But it doesn't have to be this way. In The
First Rule of Mastery, Michael Gervais shows us that the key to leading a high-
performance life is to redirect our attention from the world outside us to the
world inside us. He reveals the mental skills and practices we need to overcome
FOPOthe same skills he's taught to the top performers in the world, including
sports MVPs, world-renowned artists and musicians, and Fortune 100 leaders and
teams. Filled with fascinating stories from the worlds of sports and business,
leading-edge science, and insights from the frontier of human performance, The
First Rule of Mastery is a much-needed wake-up call that when we give more value
to other people's opinions than we do our own, we live life on their terms, not
ours.
