4 out of 5 stars A mental guide   July 2, 2008
It's a great book once you get into it. I have found myself so busy with climbing this season already, I have little time to read it, however, what I have read has actually already begin to help my climbing, and it can be related to life off the rock as well, if you read into it.


4 out of 5 stars Goes beyond the cliffs   June 28, 2008
Takes a look beyond the physical aspects of climbing and puts success in the hands of anyone that can control their mental game. Worth the time and you'll end up wanting to take it with you to the crags. Even if you don't climb the lessons can be used in business and other sports too.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent book!   June 21, 2008
If for no other reason you should read this book it's that it brings greater self-awareness and introspective reflection to the challenging thought processes which a climber experiences while pushing their limits, and therefore teaches us to analyze these moments in order to become a more successful climber. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a better understanding of themselves, life and climbing as a whole!


5 out of 5 stars More than Rock Climbing   May 15, 2008
This book is more than rock climbing. it delves into the inner spirit of any competitive sport or activity. it has very much a Zen Buddhist philosophy at its core. highly recommended.


4 out of 5 stars inspiring book on climbing perspectives   March 28, 2008
I really like this book. Even though I am not that advanced in climbing it gave me interesting insights into what happens "mentally" when you do this sport.
