The Field of Play
Who we are, specifically the person we bring to our various Fields of Play and how we perform, is heavily influenced by external and internal factors. I break these groups of influence into four layers that surround our Core Self.
When you become more intentional about what characteristics will show up on an important Field of Play for you, you’ll activate creative energy powering a new level of performance.
Becoming clear about your intentions, identifying the benefits you get from an activity, and determining what you want to achieve on a Field of Play is what will help unlock your Heroic Self.
