INSIGHT

Train Presence Like A Skill

  • Being and becoming are a persistent tension that requires deliberate training to resolve more often in the present moment.
  • Dr. Michael Gervais says train your mind with discrete practice like you train your body to access presence more reliably.
ADVICE

Start Small To Build Mental Habits

  • Start small and chunk a discrete mental practice to build a habit for presence and calmness.
  • Repeat that short practice often until it becomes an integrated habit in daily life.
INSIGHT

Psychological Safety Is Work-Focused

  • Psychological safety at work means enough safety to surface truths that improve the team's work, not therapy at work.
  • Gervais cautions against conflating 'bring your whole self to work' with mission-focused psychological safety.
