Safety.....

The naturally solitary essence of our THPL journey does not mean that we have to do all of our learning and fitness activities by ourselves.  The challenge is to find a productive and accretive team environment that makes us better than we would otherwise be.  When it comes to high-performing teams, researchers in the field of organizational psychology often focus on something called psychological safety.  Psychological safety exists when individuals in groups feel completely comfortable being themselves. Psychologically-safe groups are characterized by deep trust and mutual respect. Risk-taking is encouraged and fear of failure, judgment, and alienation is minimal or absent altogether.  Imagine what it would be like to have this kind of support and still have the opportunity to do our best individually.  Seems like something that we should pursue (or build) diligently and vigorously, yea baby!   

Loving life when I am part of a high performing team!
