An introspective audiobook not only in the perspective of tennis. This book can be taken into consideration in general life where we can trust our Self 2 to take decisions and also going with the flow and thoughts rather than letting your Self 1 with your ego in the main seat.

Moreso a 4.5.
This is, I think, one of the best self-help books of the 20th/21st centuries put together as cohesively as 2+2=4. Gallwey starts from a stoic approach to nonjudgement of the self, moves to approachable Tennis-specific technique, and finishes on the more philosophical side breaking down competition and returning to greater conceptions of the self and others.
The more deconstructivist feminist in me wants to point out the outdated language and the unmentioned layers of complexity for those not coming from his same space of privilege (much less the privilege of the general demographic of tennis players). Nonetheless, I greatly appreciate his argument for the valued essential human being. His overall steps are also quite tangible and inspired for the 21st century citizen.
Reading this as I take a psychology class on memory and learning also proved that his framework, though not presented in a scientific manner, can easily be applied to cognitive scientific principles regarding learning, motivation, and memory.
