Nic decided to re-release this old clip “At the feet of a wise man” about Tim Gallwey's transcendent experiences when he met with a 13 year old boy from India who offered him the key to self knowledge.

There is no need to fight old habits. Start new ones. It is the resisting of an old habit that puts you in that trench. The concept of the “inner game” was developed by Timothy Gallwey as a way of helping people to achieve excellence in various sports (e.g., tennis, golf, skiing, etc.), music and also business and management training. Timothy Gallwey first coined the term ‘inner game’ in his book The Inner Game of Tennis: The Classic Guide to the Mental Side of Peak Performance. He tackles this topic with great skill. He explains that the coach needs to help the learner focus their attention in the right area (or shine the light on the right area as he puts it) so that the individual can learn. Gallwey hopes his readers outsmart and circumvent stress. I borrowed a method that I got from Tim Gallwey’s golf book that I read long ago, called “welcoming the yips”. But, the coach Fred Shoemaker had been to see was not a famous Golf coach – but a Tennis coach Tennis Coach Timothy Gallwey has argued for years that you will do better at learning even a sport such as tennis if you become conscious of how your mind naturally learns. |
