Charles A Garfield
Author of Peak Performance Trilogy (1985)
"Poverty is uncomfortable, as I can testify; but nine times out of ten the best thing that can happen to a young man is to be tossed overboard and compelled to sink or swim for himself."
"When completely focused on the present, logical and analytical processes are suspended, and as this occurs, the peak performer has the sense that all actions are occurring automatically and effortlessly."
