Josh Waitzkin: The Art of Learning: An Inner Journey to Optimal Performance

The Art of Learning: An Inner Journey to Optimal Performance


Description

In THE ART OF LEARNING,Waitzkin offers an inside look at two of the world's most intense subcultures while also sharing the principles at the core of his success. One must focus on long-term goals, Waitzkin argues, instead of the immediate thrill of victory or crush of defeat, enduring the difficult periods that result in growth to reach higher levels of achievement. As the details of his life are unfolding, Waitzkin explains how these principles apply to his own story, creating a narrative that is as inspiring and instructional as it is gripping.

In a series of deftly drawn scenes, we watch the family grapple with American English (hot dogs and hush puppies? a complete mystery), American traditions (Thanksgiving turkey? an even greater mystery, since it tastes like nothing), and American culture (Firoozeh s parents laugh uproariously at Bob Hope on television, although they don t get the jokes even when she translates them into Farsi). The Art of Learning: An Inner Journey to Optimal Performance free pdf That approach, which is the subject of this book, relies on the inherent goodness of our shared Being, a resource that is surprisingly easy to contact in the space between egoic thoughts. Most of us do not experience that space in the normal course of our thinking, however. We may be surprised to hear such a thing, given our experience of the seemingly impenetrable stream of our thoughts. But this space is quite real. It is the space of Silence, Healing Power, and Insight.
