“Brilliantly illustrates how your mind really can triumph over matter.” Frankie Dettori MBE, Champion Jockey
In any high-pressure environment, from special operations to the operating theatre, you can divide people into two groups – those whose performance is controlled from the outside in and those who control their performance from the inside out.
Inside Out is about your ability to achieve incredible things on the outside by paying attention to what’s on the inside. In his first ever book, Charlie Unwin shares unparalleled insight into the minds and inner workings of the world’s most accomplished performers, including double Olympic champions, special forces soldiers, fighter pilots, surgeons, barristers, chefs, musicians and financial traders.
Combining his unique experience as a performance psychologist with a blend of cutting-edge science and conventional wisdom, Charlie takes you on a journey through the three dimensions that shape your inner world – the Thinking Dimension, the Feeling Dimension and the Intuitive Dimension.
In doing so, he turns the complexities of neuroscience, stress adaptation and cognitive performance into simple and effective training principles that you can use in your everyday quest for excellence. Inside Out will give you the confidence to do more and go further with what you already have.
“Anyone interested in exploring their own performance potential is going to benefit immensely from this book.” DS, former SAS Squadron Commander
