Kindle Notes & Highlights
The more relaxed and focused you are, the better are your chances of succeeding. There is a very thin line between being focused and being obsessed. The former entails attention to detail during preparation, reading the pitch and the opposition bowling, being ready for any eventuality, and feeling confident that you have done everything within your means to give yourself the best shot at scoring runs. The latter is all-consuming and takes your mind away from the larger picture, from the process, as it were. If all you are thinking about is the outcome, the processes get skewed.
No matter how gifted you are, history is proof that you can’t be successful if you don’t polish your gifts.
