Think Like an Olympian

Created: 15 February 2018

Training to be an Olympian is always hard.

Concepts Emerging from “The Sniper Mind”

Created: 11 January 2018

Back in 2017, as I was preparing for the launch of The Sniper Mind I began putting together a series of Tweets. Some were quotes lifted directly from the book itself. Others were notes I had made in different sections that were designed to inspire me and give me a sense of direction as I was writing the book.
