Nate Hobgood Chittick NFL player His coaches were telling him, you're too slow. You can't do this. And he developed this screen where he would only let certain things come in that were actually of service to him. You talk about the screens a little bit.

So Nate Hobgoga Chittick, dear friend of mine, no longer with us. He passed away during our friendship. At one point he says, mike, you have no idea what it's like to grow up in football where grown men in front of your friends are screaming at you. He had to figure out, and this was kind of his own creativity. He says, I put up a screen. I put up a screen that was porous in such a way that the only thing that was going to come in was the thing that was going to help me. If you can figure out the difference between noise and signal, and you have a tuning for the signal, you're on your path now. The noise of what others think, for the most part, is radically distracting. And the signal is, how do I line up my thoughts, words and actions to be my very best right now? And there's micro choices that we're constantly making. And him putting up a screen was helping him with that micro choice.
