I disagree that anxiety is being "attuned to danger", to me just is not feeling well, & it's another one of those "modern epidemics", cut to the point, it's a modern malaise, so much so that the more in line w/ human-animal you are, the less anxious you are e.g.: being active/doing sports, being in nature, not being time-pressed(trivia: we only started living by the clock some 200 years ago), having strong social ties, leisure etc.

I also disagree that it's an "asset", I'll say already that I hate this type of language that turns everything into money, but from what I can tell and have read, being anxious/depressed/unwell is cognitive & emotionally taxing, and most way-too-anxious people have a hard time just thinking straight, so I think there's no way this this thesis stands.

I'm a very analytic/cautious/rational person and I think this is very related to being able to be a good professional, but I've also always felt that anxiety was poison and got the hell away from what I felt was sources, which I don't regret. I also think it's at least as much exogenous(i.e. environmental) as it is endogenous(i.e. oh you came from the factory with X so that's it). Relax is king.
