'This book captures the magic of being in flow . . . Highly recommend' RONNIE O'SULLIVAN'Entertaining and enlightening' MATTHEW SYED'Simon has looked into something we actually all know or at least once did - the ability to live life more in the now' JASON FOXSimon Mundie, host of The Life Lessons podcast, draws on interviews with some of the world's sporting legends to redefine how we understand - and pursue - success through 8 key lessons.As the sports reporter for BBC Radio 1 for the best part of a decade, Simon Mundie was pitch-side at many of the most high-profile sporting events in history. It was often thrilling, but the emphasis always seemed to be on results, tactics and the score. But as the saying goes, sport is a metaphor for life - so Simon set out to explore that.Drawing on interviews with sporting legends from Jonny Wilkinson to Kate Richardson-Walsh, Caitlyn Jenner to Goldie Sayers, along with psychologists, philosophers and world-renowned thinkers, Simon shares some of the tools and techniques that sportspeople have embraced to grow and evolve. From developing emotional intelligence to the power of true acceptance and the joy of getting in flow, he explores eight universal themes that are highlighted in sport, but that are all too easily overlooked.What can the careers of Gaël Monfils and Andy Murray teach us about exploring our potential? What can England's Olympic gold-medal winning hockey team teach us about the power of being truly selfless? Wise and inspiring, Champion Thinking illustrates that the contentment we are all looking for isn't somewhere 'out there' - it's actually so close that we tend to overlook it.'The intention behind this book is beautiful, and I highly recommend it' RUPERT SPIRA'Mundie understands something most of us discover eventually: that the pursuit of sporting excellence is the best guide we have to what it means to be human' AMOL RAJAN

Recenzii

This book captures the magic of being in flow, and Simon upgrades the usual message of what 'success' and happiness are really about. Highly recommended
Champion Thinking blends compelling sporting moments with thought-provoking philosophical insights. Mundie argues persuasively that sport isn't just about trophies and winning, and that similarly life isn't just about success and status. Entertaining and enlightening
This exquisite, erudite book distils the modern wisdom in Mundie's unmissable podcast. Business leaders, sports coaches, and indeed anyone with pretensions to being a champion - or just improving themselves - ought to read it, whether for entertainment or because it might change their life for the better. Mundie understands something most of us discover eventually: that the pursuit of sporting excellence is the best guide we have to what it means to be human
This book will challenge your thinking on what success truly is and will give you tools to "succeed" in life in the truest sense of the world. This is definitely not just another book about sport and those who happen to be good at it
Simon skilfully weaves the implications of the recognition of our true nature with compelling sporting anecdotes. The intention behind this book is beautiful, and I highly recommend it
Simon has truly explored something in this book that we all need to remember. Using high achieving individuals, teams and sporting stories he has looked into something we actually all know or at least once did and something that I champion personally. What is it? The ability to live life more in the now. As toddlers we were experts at being present. Read this book and become that expert again
An ingenious concept where sport meets psychology. And the best of the conversations are very good indeed
One of the BBC's best mental health podcasts - full of warmth and spice
