In this highly anticipated book, the bestselling author of Do Hard Things Steve Magness—“one of the giants of modern thinking about high performance” (Alex Hutchinson)—flips the script on the pursuit of excellence, shifting our thinking from high-stress survival mode to fulfillment-oriented thriving mode to creates sustainable success at the highest level, in what Amy Morin, author of 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don’t Do calls “an essential read for anyone interested in self-discovery and meaningful success.”Striving is in our nature. We all want to perform at our best when it matters most. But in today's world, many of us feel lost, isolated, and overwhelmed. We're paralyzed by fear of failure and crippled by insecurities. We know we’re capable of more, yet no matter how hard we try, we feel stuck. We’ve been sold the wrong path to success and personal fulfillment.Renowned performance scientist and bestselling author Steve Magness reveals a new path to sustainable success. In Win the Inside Game, Magness argues that excellence and fulfillment are not mutually exclusive; we can and should seek both. When we measure our worth by our achievements, cement our identities to our careers, and sacrifice our well-being in the pursuit of external validation, it backfires. We default to survival mode, protecting and defending ourselves instead of being free to fulfill our potential.In this, his most personal book yet, Magness draws on his vast wealth of experience as an Olympic coach and whistleblower, highly popular consultant, and premier expert on performance, as well as scientific findings, interviews, and case studies, to provide a three-part framework to help us learn to focus on what really matters and achieve success.Be—Clarity on Who You AreDo—Clarity in Your PursuitsBelong—Clarity on Where and How You Fit InRedefining the trend carved by bestsellers such as Be Useful, Range, and Hidden Potential, Win the Inside Game seeks not only excellence but inner and personal growth. In realigning our focus from something externally motivated and fear-based to internally motivated and driven by personal conviction, Magness provides the tools for us to free ourselves up to perform and ultimately achieve a fuller sense of self and purpose.

Un replanteamiento radical de lo que significa alcanzar nuestras m ximas ambiciones a pesar de las dificultades. Un replanteamiento radical de lo que significa alcanzar nuestras m ximas ambiciones a pesar de las dificultades Durante mucho tiempo hemos considerado que ser duro es la clave para superar retos y alcanzar la excelencia, ya sea en el campo de los deportes, en una sala de juntas o en la mesa del comedor. Sin embargo, ese modelo ha promovido una mentalidad basada en el miedo, la falsa bravuconer a y la ocultaci n de cualquier signo de debilidad. Steve Magness, cient fico especializado en rendimiento y entrenador de atletas ol mpicos, nos revela que asumir la incomodidad, enfrentarnos a nuestros miedos, prestar atenci n y crear espacio para emprender acciones reflexivas son las verdaderas bases para cultivar la fortaleza interior. Los pilares b sicos para desarrollar la resiliencia son cuatro: PILAR 1: OLVIDA LA FACHADA Y ABRAZA LA REALIDAD. PILAR 2: ESCUCHA A TU CUERPO. PILAR 3: NO REACCIONES, RESPONDE. PILAR 4: TRASCIENDE LA ADVERSIDAD. Con gran inteligencia y sabidur a, esta obra nos revela lo que en verdad implica ser resiliente. Bas ndose en el mindfulness, la psicolog a del deporte, la neurociencia, la psicolog a y la filosof a, el autor nos ofrece una hoja de ruta que nos ayudar a superar los retos de la vida y alcanzar un alto rendimiento que nos haga m s felices, m s exitosos y, en definitiva, mejores personas.
