The Inner game wise coach

I often go back to The Inner Game as a source of inspiration. As my first introduction to non directive coaching I originally trained with the first Inner game sport coaches. I remember my first attempts at "coaching" and in particular David Hemery and how for me he embodied the non directive coaching approach.He was, is also a very inspirational (and humble ) human being...Here's some of his coaching wisdom

"What goes on in our heads often interferes with getting the best out of ourselves. The key for me is single appropriate focus.We need to become responsible for our choices and one of these is where we place our focussed attention. This attention empowers our awareness on that focus and allows the sub-conscious mind to integrate related supportive actions in an awesome way.

It enables flow rather than forcing"
