Hello Friend
Something to read & ponder while in lockdown...
Nick Mordin: Winning Without Thinking
What follows are my notes from Nick Mordin’s excellent book, ‘Winning Without Thinking’, which was first published in 2002. I’ve presented these notes in bullet point form and have tried to group them into relevant categories. My aim is to offer something of interest to read that may well inspire your own thinking when approaching the greatest of games.
I read this book a few years ago but thought it was time for a refresher. For a variety of reasons my approach to racing on the blog has become stale, predictable and at times, questionable. The break from the daily grind has done me good, as has reading this book again – there’s plenty of food for thought. Although this book was first published 18 years ago the ideas are still relevant. I’ve still much pondering to do as to how I shape my content moving forwards, but I hope you find the following as interesting and insightful as I did. It’s become apparent that down-time from day to day racing is vital,– as well as allowing you to attack racing ‘fresh’, down-time also gives you the opportunity to think about how you approach racing, what you do, and why. Well, it has for me anyway. Now is the perfect opportunity to reflect and plan for the future - it was about time I did. Hopefully some of what follows may inspire you to even greater punting success.
These books are in scant supply these days (a few on Amazon for £40!) and i've only touched the surface of the content contained within these pages.
But, with that in mind...
All the best, and stay safe,
Josh
