At 8,000 meters you don’t think clearly.
You’re cold. Exhausted. Low oxygen. Ego is loud. Judgment is weak.
David Göttler doesn’t make big decisions up there.
He makes them at sea level.

Before the climb, he makes the rules. Turnaround time. Traffic limits. Red flags.
Because when oxygen drops, discipline must already be locked in.

Here’s the lesson:
• Pre-set your limits.
• Remove emotion from crisis.
• Execute what you already decided.
Hard decisions are made early.
