Hi,
I am playing around these 2 opposing ideas in the past few days.
Being super calm, you might not have the drive and energy to be a super achiever.
Being a super achiever, you might not have the luxury to be super calm.
However, if you are not calm, you can't see the opportunities to achieve. Even you can see them, you might not be calm enough to take appropriate actions to realize them.
If you want to be an achiever, you will make yourself very busy in taking actions. This creates lots of stress and you can't be calm again!
This is a paradox. But if you can see through this paradox, you can then be a super achiever.
I am now working very calmly to get through this paradox.
