Pathways to Peak Performance. The Zone or Flow State is one of those things in sport and indeed all performance and creativity, that elevates our 'game' from something we love, to something that brings us a level of profound and utter ecstasy. Noticing and using the Gateways will enable us to pay visits there whenever we choose, and not just by chance or luck!

Autorenporträt

Having left school at the age of fourteen, Peter Wright got his first job as a labourer in a chicken hatchery. This was followed by a year of Liberal Studies at Newbattle Abbey College, which he describes as life-changing. A career in youth work followed and he went on to become manager of the Duke of Edinburgh`s Award Unit in the City of Edinburgh Council; a post he held for over twenty years, during which he was awarded MBE. With his mantra of volunteering makes the world go round, Peter has been an exemplar of this throughout his adult life. From this, a diverse range of organisations and programmes, mainly charitable, have been variously founded or developed by him. This has included projects for young people - especially the disadvantaged, in heritage and environmental action. More recently he has been an activist in supporting the provision of education for girls amongst the Maasai People in Kenya. Writing was an accidental outcome of his epic 1,200km walk along the entire Watershed of Scotland when he was in his fifties, and he has been glad to share his experiences with ever-widening audiences. `Clearly, you are having a love affair . . . with the landscapes of Scotland`, was the perceptive comment by one of the editors of his first book, and he is known to be more than happy with this accolade.
