The Inner Game of Tennis

Timothy Gallwey's 1974 book nominally about tennis but actually about performance under pressure — the idea that Self 1 (the judgmental mind) sabotages Self 2 (the body that already knows how to play). Quiet the inner critic and performance follows. Frequently cited by Tobi Lütke as a model for how founders should relate to their own work.
