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.

I truly love everything about this book! As someone who was very fortunate to coach athletes competing against Duff during his sliding career, this book is a testament to the quality of Duff’s character as an athlete and an individual. His insights are equally applicable at both the elite and developmental spectrums of sport. I only wish he had written this book about 20 years earlier, as it would have made me a better coach when I was with the sliding sports!
Now, as a father of two young boys, I’ll keep The Tao of Sport on rotation as a reminder (to myself) to keep their own sporting ventures in perspective while trying to foster a “Love of the Game” atmosphere as they start to experience more organized sport. For my boys, I try to emphasize that “losses are lessons” and I hope that follows the same spirit in which Tao was written.
Thank you Duff for writing this great resource and also thank you the some of great memories your story brought back to mind.
