Good book, well written. I’m a competitive skeet shooting and some of his tips regarding focus were very helpful.
Rating: 3 / 5
“Finding Your Zone” certainly hit the right zone with me. As a former athlete and current business executive, I found the insights and suggestions provided by Dr. Lardon to be valuable and quite thought provoking. I also find it most interesting to see how Dr. Lardon was able to go well beyond the simple sports anecdotes that we find in so many books of this type. Instead he expands these stories and applies them to our thinking process in a manner that is understandable and easy reading for the non-docter community. My only real question is when does Dr Lardon’s next book come out. . . . . . I’ll be interested to see how he follows up on this excellent first effort.

As a professional artist and teacher I found Mike Lardon’s book both inspirational and very helpful in getting into that most important zone while painting. It also gave me insight into how to relax before an audience. It changed my approach to many aspects of my life.

As a competitive swimmer at an early age, I was aware of the concept of “the Zone”. It’s the place where you can’t fail, your body is working in sync with your mind, and there’s absolutly no question of your capability. It’s when you just know, without doubt, what you’re capable of achieving. Suffering from anxiety and challenges as an adult caught me off guard. After reading this book, I realized that I could apply the same core lessons I had applied to sports at an early age to many other facets of thought. “Finding Your Zone” is a simple explanation of a complex process you may or may not be using in your life already. This book helped me understand what was going on in my mind & how I could use my power of thought to my advantage. Definatly a must read!!
