What Does High Performance Mean to You?
I was a British table tennis number one, three times Commonwealth champion. I think when you're involved in sport at a professional level, even what's rather pejoratively called a minority sport, you're very interested in trying to maximize your own potential. And for me it's really about being the best that you can be fulfilling your own potential and reaching the summit of your own capabilities. We don't necessarily have the same potential. Talent is a factor which we don't really have control over. But we have tremendous control in agency on how we shape the trajectory of our lives. It has been an interesting thing to write and think about over the years.
