a unique new concept that will improve your game and help you "win" at the larger games of life. by vM. Timothy Gailwey

The game inside every player's ihead is the crucial one. There, two selves- Self 1 (the critic) and Self 2 (the doer) should meet each challenge together. But often Self 1 blocks Self 2. Learn how to let your game happen naturally without striv- ing to do the right thing (which nearly always causes you to do it wrong).
