How to improve your game and discover your true potential by increasing your concentration, willpower and confidenceEvery golfer, whether amateur or pro, who has ever picked up a club knows what it's like to get the yips - that feeling when you inexplicably lose control of your shot, and become overwhelmed by self-doubt, tension, fear of failure and anxiety.With a new introduction from golf performance pro Peter Hudson, the multi-million bestselling The Inner Game of Golf resolves this mental interference. It is not a book about how to play golf; it is a book about how to learn golf, and its lessons can be applied to any sport. Putting aside the mechanics of golfing technique and laborious debates about strategy, this classic handbook for golfers of all levels tackles the psychological aspects of the game and reveals how you can perform to your true potential for more than brief moments at a time.Using only his Inner Game principles, without taking a single lesson and playing only once a week, Timothy Gallwey knocked 15 strokes off his game in a year. There is no physical reason why you can't hit perfect drives or sink long putts more consistently. By applying the Inner Game approach to your own game, you too can see phenomenal improvements to your scorecard.

Edición 50 aniversario de esta guía atemporal para alcanzar el éxito, tanto en el tenis como en la vida, que incluye nuevo contenido, así como una introducción de Bill Gates y prólogo de Pete Carroll. Muchas veces somos nuestro peor enemigo. No es el adversario externo el que nos derrota sino nuestras propias dudas, nuestro propio miedo y nuestra falta de concentración. El Juego Interior del Tenis nos muestra la forma de superar estos obstáculos y de lograr un óptimo desempeño. Este libro está basado en el tenis, pero sus principios pueden aplicarse a cualquier tipo de actividad. Si practicas el tenis te enseñará a mejorar tu juego, a aprender con más rapidez y eficacia y a confiar más en la sabiduría natural de tu cuerpo. Si no lo practicas, te ayudará a desarrollar ciertas habilidades que te servirán para tener éxito en cualquier tipo de juego o en cualquier campo de actividad. Tim Gallwey es uno de los pioneros de la psicología deportiva. Fue jugador profesional de tenis y profesor de ese deporte. La presente obra ha sido un gran éxito internacional, con más de un millón de ejemplares vendidos.

En el mundo occidental la perspectiva mecanista del universo, heredada de la física de Isaac Newton, ha influido enormemente en la forma de abordar cualquier proceso de aprendizaje. El enfoque en lo externo y lo técnico que se deriva de esta visión pasa por alto ciertas cuestiones internas de aprendizaje, entre ellas, como enfrentarse al miedo y a la falta de confianza, la intuición o la conciencia.De ese modo, aunque se ha analizado y casi diseccionado cada elemento externo del golf, se han descuidado importantes factores que pueden llegar a obstaculizar el proceso de aprendizaje natural. Por muchas técnicas y conocimientos que poseamos, muchas veces somos nuestro peor enemigo, y, por tanto, en el juego del golf como en la vida cotidiana, poco podremos avanzar sin un sincero reconocimiento de los obstáculos internos que nos ponemos a nosostros mismos.Por si esto fuera poco, en los casos en los que sí llegamos a reconocerlos, tendemos a ser tan duros y críticos con nosotros mismos que nos incapacitamos para mejorar o hacer algo al respecto. Timothy Gallwey es autor del best-seller mundial "El juego interior del tenis".

No importa que lleves mucho tiempo en tu trabajo ni que creas que no te queda nada nuevo que aprender en él. Cualquiera que sea tu situación, tu trabajo puede convertirse en una oportunidad de desarrollar tus aptitudes, mejorar tu bienestar e incrementar tu conciencia. Este libro te ofrece una manera fácil y placentera de mantener el rumbo, mientras avanzas en dirección a tus metas personales y profesionales. Si sientes que estás estancado en tu trabajo, en este libro encontrarás lo que necesitas para volver a recuperar la ilusión. El Juego Interior del Trabajo, te desafía a replantearte tu definición de trabajo y tus motivaciones para ir a trabajar cada mañana. Te hará considerar al trabajo de una forma totalmente nueva, cambiando para siempre la manera en que trabajas. Timothy Gallwey dando clases de tenis, descubrió una nueva manera de aprender y de enseñar distinta a todo lo conocido hasta entonces. A este sistema lo denominó El Juego Interior.

Todos estos obstáculos generan estrés y dificultan nuestra realización.Una vez llegamos a dominar el Juego Interior, somos capaces de manejar los obstáculos del Juego Exterior sin estrés.
