Best-selling author George Leonard (Mastery, The Ultimate Athlete, andEducation and Ecstasy) devoted a lifetime to uncovering the essential traits that allow the superstars of our culture to soar. The 5 Keys to Mastery reveals the simple, essential elements that can transform any life into one of high achievement. Leonard is joined by twelve of the most successful people of our time - including BB King, Carlos Santana, Linux inventor Linus Torvalds, and Nobel laureate Eric Kandel - who share their personal stories, practices and techniques for using the five keys. Practical, enlightening and inspiring, The 5 Keys to Mastery delivers the new millennium formula for lifelong success and personal fulfillment.

Drawing on Zen philosophy and his expertise in the martial art of aikido, ITP co-founder George Leonard shows how the process of mastery can help us attain a higher level of excellence and a deeper sense of satisfaction and fulfillment in our daily lives. Whether you're seeking to improve your career or your intimate relationships, increase self-esteem or create harmony within yourself, this inspiring guide will help you move toward success in all areas of your life.

Athletes have long known that their pursuit of excellence can lead to the unforgettable altered state of consciousness known as “The Zone”. This unification of body, mind and spirit can paradoxically lead to peak performance as well as inner peace. Coaches and sports psychologists now include techniques from esoteric realms of energy medicine and consciousness research in order to awaken these highest human potentials.
