Reading this week

What I picked up for light reading.

Overachievement by John Eliot.



I have really enjoyed this book so far. Author Eliot dismisses the "Zone" thought process which proponents have described as the success spot for high flying athletes, corporate professionals and individuals. Rather, Eliot says obsession and stress are the keys the winners use to overcome barriers and become the top performers they are.

Especially targeted are performance coaches and sports/business psychologists who Eliot believes look for problems rather than develop innate qualities for success.

There are plenty of real world anecdotes and personal stories from sports and business lumunaris. Definitely worth a read from your local library, bookstore or Amazon.
