Gravitas looks like being present in the moment

The hyper achiever never comes across as senior, until they calm down and find grounding in who they are.

Ego desires to win title, status and affection of others create excellent junior employees: loyal Labradors and hard charging Rottweilers.

Porous to suggestion and eager for external validation,
they're easily moved from their foundation.

Gravitas occurs when junior achievers shift their sense of self:
* Instead of worrying about how others may be approving/disproving of them, they accept the adage
* "No one is sitting around thinking about you; they're too busy with their own problems."

Seeing life as a multi-faceted experience of work, family, friends, healthy competition, adventure and spiritual grounding,
high achieving individuals achieve gravitas the embodying this broader, integrated sense of self.

1. What comments from others push you off your base?
2. Where are you trying hard to be seen?
3. What inner narrative distracts you from feeling whole in what you have today?
