Duff Gibson has spent the better part of three decades in a hotbed of Olympic sport. Despite its mischaracterization in popular culture, the mental side of sport is perhaps the most significant aspect, and what very often makes the difference between success and failure, in particular at the highest level. The Tao of Sport explores the commonality amongst elite performers relating to purpose, passion, and growth, as a means to achieving high performance, or as a means to an end in itself.

A must read for athletes, coaches, and parents
Revisado: 03-26-22
Duff Gibson nails it. His insights and perspective are not only refreshing, but based on research and amazong life experiences told from the eyes of an Olympic champion, father, scientist, and sports fan. As an exercise scientist, I appreciated the relevance of his work and accuracy of his conclusions. As a aged-Ironman triathlete, I find myself reliving my past experiences through new eyes with new insight into what I did right and what could have led to different outcomes. But as a parent is where I really connected with Duff’s wisdom. How we can get our kids to participate in sports for the pure joy of the moment rather than through a pressure-pot of competitive misdirection is a message that every parent (and coach) needs to hear. The book is an awesome read and, for those inclined to listen, an awesome audiobook. I can’t wait for the sequel.
