So I think it's, I think the guy's name is Tim Galloway.
The idea is that he wrote it in the 1960s or maybe 70s.
He was a tennis instructor.
And so he was like trying to get his students to be better tennis players.
And he developed this idea of self one and self two.
Self one is a critic.
And so when you would hit a ball, you'd say, shit, that was horrible.
I got to move my hand this way.
I got to do this.
Self two is someone who doesn't listen to the brain, but listens to the body.
And you'd be like, well, I practiced this a thousand times, just like Steph Curry.
Like, I don't need to criticize myself.
Instead, I'm going to be objective.
And I'm gonna be like, let's try moving our hand just a little bit this way.
And let's just see what happens.
That one, that hit that we just did, that didn't achieve the desired outcome.
What would happen if I just do this?
You just feel it.
The idea here is that you listen to your body more than your brain.
It's very similar to what you're saying of being simple and following intuition.
