Since childhood, we have been taught that the basis of all achievements is hard work, that you need to set ambitious goals and work hard to achieve them. The author refutes these generally accepted ideas and, on the example of such prominent personalities as Michael Jordan, Yogi Berra, Richard Branson, Tiger Woods and many others, makes paradoxical conclusions. Working hard with your head is stupid; champions usually don’t think about anything when they go to their victories. Classical methods of breathing and relaxation only hinder records; stress is a source of energy and power You need to be self-confident, even brazen, proud of your successes and not look for flaws in yourself. If you dream of becoming the best in your field, fully reveal your talents and make the most of the possibilities of your brain, this book is for you.
