We often get asked for reading recommendations and today’s request was from someone who is teaching MBA students and wanted them to read about mindfulness and sport. We were able to recommend the great series of books called “The Inner Game” by W. Timothy Gallwey. They have been around for many years, but still offer a great perspective on how the activity of your mind can affect everything you do. Starting with “The Inner Game of Tennis”, he has also written on Work, Golf, and Music.
Tim has a formula for the inner game: Â Performance = potential – interference (P=p-i). Â Read more about his approach and the importance of mastering one’s own mind to minimise interference. Anyone who has played a sport knows that your own frustrations, fears and self-criticism are more likely to impact on your performance than any external factors. And it’s the same in all aspects of life. A person with a fit mind is in control of these interfering thoughts and can bring clarity to any situation.
