Surprise Surprise Surprise!!!
The way Gallwey has linked Tennis and Life in this book can only come from a person who has realized the complete meaning of Tennis and Life.
Every chapter in the book is a full of wisdom that's applicable to us that would streamline our thoughts and focus of reality of situations and thereby find new meaning on everything that we were/are doing.
The flow is so smooth that I have not felt I'm reading a book, felt like some Guru has taught me life's inner lesson through Tennis/book.
Feel like I know how to play all shots in Tennis now and call all shots in the game of Life.

The inner game of life

Not just tennis
This book is not just about game of tennis, rather we learn on how we can transform our lives better and make it more meaningful.
Very thoughtful and meaningful observation on how to control our inner self. The meaning of game, competition and winning is very thoughtful and makes so much sense in real world scenarios.

Last two chapters are informative
The first half of the book is too elaborate. It could have been more precise. Last two chapters contains a lot of disruptive facts which can enlighten one.
