Win the Inside Game: How to Move from Surviving to Thriving, and Free Yourself Up to Perform
鬆綁表現焦慮: 為什麼愈想證明自己, 愈容易搞砸?
內容簡介
在這本備受期待的新書中,暢銷書《Do Hard Things》的作者、知名績效專家史蒂夫.麥格尼斯(Steve Magness)——被《Endure》作者亞歷克斯·哈欽森(Alex Hutchinson)譽為「現代高績效思維的巨擘之一」——顛覆了對卓越追求的傳統觀念,將我們的思維從高壓的生存模式轉向以滿足感為導向的繁榮模式,創造可持續的高層次成功。正如《13 Things Mentally Strong People Don’t Do》作者艾美.莫林(Amy Morin)所說,這是「任何對自我發現和有意義的成功感興趣的人必讀之作」。
奮鬥是我們的天性。我們都渴望在關鍵時刻發揮最佳表現。然而在現今世界,許多人感到迷失、孤立且不堪重負。我們因害怕失敗而癱瘓,因不安全感而受挫。我們明知道自己能做到更多,卻無論如何努力,都感覺停滯不前。我們被誤導走上了錯誤的成功與自我滿足之路。
著名的績效科學家暨暢銷書作者史蒂夫·馬格尼斯揭示了通往可持續成功的新途徑。在《Win the Inside Game》中,馬格尼斯主張卓越與滿足感並非互不相容;我們可以,也應該,同時追求兩者。當我們用成就衡量自我價值,把職業與身份綁定,並在追求外在認可的過程中犧牲福祉時,這種做法會適得其反。我們會進入生存模式,只顧保護和防衛自己,而無法自由地發揮潛力。
在這本極具個人色彩的著作中,馬格尼斯結合其作為奧運教練、舉報人、深受歡迎的顧問及績效專家的豐富經驗,並引用科學研究、訪談及案例研究,提出一個三部分的框架,幫助我們專注於真正重要的事情,並取得成功:
- 存在(Be)——釐清自我身份
- 行動(Do)——釐清追求目標
- 歸屬(Belong)——釐清自己的定位與歸屬感
與暢銷書《Be Useful》《Range》和《Hidden Potential》一脈相承,《Win the Inside Game》不僅追求卓越,更追求內在和個人成長。透過將焦點從外部動機和恐懼驅動轉向內部動機和個人信念,馬格尼斯提供了實用工具,幫助我們解放自我,提升表現,並最終達到更完整的自我與人生目標。
In this highly anticipated book, the bestselling author of Do Hard Things Steve Magness—“one of the giants of modern thinking about high performance” (Alex Hutchinson)—flips the script on the pursuit of excellence, shifting our thinking from high-stress survival mode to fulfillment-oriented thriving mode to creates sustainable success at the highest level, in what Amy Morin, author of 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don’t Do calls “an essential read for anyone interested in self-discovery and meaningful success.”
Striving is in our nature. We all want to perform at our best when it matters most. But in today's world, many of us feel lost, isolated, and overwhelmed. We're paralyzed by fear of failure and crippled by insecurities. We know we’re capable of more, yet no matter how hard we try, we feel stuck. We’ve been sold the wrong path to success and personal fulfillment.
Renowned performance scientist and bestselling author Steve Magness reveals a new path to sustainable success. In Win the Inside Game, Magness argues that excellence and fulfillment are not mutually exclusive; we can and should seek both. When we measure our worth by our achievements, cement our identities to our careers, and sacrifice our well-being in the pursuit of external validation, it backfires. We default to survival mode, protecting and defending ourselves instead of being free to fulfill our potential.
In this, his most personal book yet, Magness draws on his vast wealth of experience as an Olympic coach and whistleblower, highly popular consultant, and premier expert on performance, as well as scientific findings, interviews, and case studies, to provide a three-part framework to help us learn to focus on what really matters and achieve success.
- Be—Clarity on Who You Are
- Do—Clarity in Your Pursuits
- Belong—Clarity on Where and How You Fit In
Redefining the trend carved by bestsellers such as Be Useful, Range, and Hidden Potential, Win the Inside Game seeks not only excellence but inner and personal growth. In realigning our focus from something externally motivated and fear-based to internally motivated and driven by personal conviction, Magness provides the tools for us to free ourselves up to perform and ultimately achieve a fuller sense of self and purpose.

Review
"Win the Inside Game is a wise, entertaining book that makes the excellent case that winning is more about unshackling ourselves from our expectations and knee-jerk defensiveness than it is finding minuscule competitive edges and flavor-of-the-month performance hacks.

Highly recommended!" — Adam Alter, New York Times-bestselling author of Anatomy of a Breakthrough
