Why do I still lose my footing when the pressure hits?

You know the line now. Your hands do the work without asking your permission to think. Then someone snaps at you, or the numbers spike, or a coworker goes strange and erratic — and the line is still there, but you are not. You lose the thread. This is not a flaw in your training. It is the next thing to train. The line taught your hands. Now your attention must be taught — where it goes when the room gets loud, and whether it stays with you or runs off to whoever is shouting. Your pod feels this too, each in a different shape. One goes quiet. One gets sharp. One starts explaining too much. Notice this together, out loud, and you will see the pressure coming faster than any of you sees it alone.
