The message is simple.  The more skin you've got in the game, the more you stand to lose, the more embarrassment you stand to face, the more you'll level up, show out, focus on the details, and crush your goals.  You always perform better when you're uncomfortable, your back is against the wall, and the only option is to push forward.  Get back to being uncomfortable so that you can get to the next level.
