Work Description
This book applies the strategies and tactics of war to your personal development as a sports player. Consider yourself to be the general of an army of one. You have the same obligation to find ways to win on a personal level as that of the general. Your strategies focus on developing your knowledge, strength, and agility. Your tactics focus on the many ways to confront opponents through the use of movements and mind games. (The book The Psychology of Losing explains a wide variety of tactical tools you can utilize.) These actions become tools within your personal library of moves.
