Carlton reflects on being a very angry person while he was growing up, and that he has had to work hard to learn how to stay calm under pressure.

This is something you can apply to any area of development, whether it’s confidence, staying calm under pressure or any other skill you feel would help you to flourish.
When you recognise a trait in someone that you admire it is not about trying to become them, it’s about working out what they do and why, then considering what that would look like, sound like and feel like for you.
