The Zone: How to Get in It and Stay in It
If you have ever been in the zone and on top of your game, you will have experienced such a wonderful feeling. Everything flows for you and is effortless. You can do no wrong when you are on song.
Conversely if you are off your game, nothing goes right and the whole world seems to conspire against you. We wonder if we have upset someone when our mojo deserts us.
If you have been in the zone and wondered how you got there, then this book is for you as it will show you how to stay there permanently.
If you are out of the zone and wonder how you get in it, then this book is the map and guide you have been looking for too.
You'll find out how there is not just one zone but many and that we can occupy more than one at the same time.
You'll also discover how we can all too easily fall into by danger zones. This book will not only show you how to get out of them if you are trapped in one but also how not to enter them in the first place.
If you perform live as a sports person or on stage as a singer, musician or presenter, you will find much here to help you keep at your peak. If you work in the creative sphere where you are performing too but off line, this book will show you how to deliver high quality output consistently. If you are in business, there is much here you can use to give you a competitive edge. If you work in a client-facing role, find out how to keep both you and your customers smiling. If you are in a relationship, this book is awash with tips to keep everything fresh, dynamic and interesting. You will learn how you can fall in love every single day with the same person, if that's your bag. If you are out of a relationship, you'll find simple techniques to change the 'inner-you' such that the perfect partner breezes into your world. The Zone is a clarion call to each of us to enjoy life to the full and to perform at our best. Note though that being in the zone is not all about activity and energy, you will learn how relaxation and 'me-time' are essential components of a Zone-Full existence.
When you are fully immersed in The Zone, life becomes a breeze and takes on a magical quality. You feel and know as if you have fully arrived for the first time.

About the author
Tom Evans
139 books63 followersI am an author, meditation guide and temporal alchemist. After publishing 15 books non-fiction books, I've just published my 1st novel, Soulwaves which is a potential future history of planet Earth and humanity. I have now written the prequel/sequel to this novel in the form of 12 short stories and tall tales.
I love exploring how the mind works (or doesn't) and reading the esoteric with the aim of making it exoteric.
Currently exploring how to bend time and space, how to tune into future memories and how authors can channel their future self who knows the words they have yet to write (or something like that !!)

I knew Tom Evans way back when he was helping out writers, and picked his new book up with a viewpoint of getting myself back into a writing or productivity flow. But this book is much bigger than that, dealing out some neuro-scientific brain principles, and some spiritual and esoteric whole-mind theories towards different zones of doing, danger and ultimately, being.
The author details several zones in the three categories, with six levels or states of each, diagrammed in a hexagonal format which fits together with other major zones to produce super zones. Readers of this ebook also have access to an online ecourse which provides additional content for meditation and creativity exercises to get us into a zone of being.

I greatly enjoyed reading this book. I found the author's perspective on different zones interesting and enlightening. There were tips and ideas that I will be able to apply to my own creative endeavors going forward. I also really enjoy listening to Tom Evans' podcast called The Zone Show.

The ideas in this book didn't particularly resonate with me, but IO can see how some people might find the book to be motivational. I feel it would have benefited from having practical tips and examples.

How to rate this one. Difficult. There were some chapters that virtually YELLED AT ME from the pages -- the section on the creative zone was exactly what I needed to hear. Some of the other zones certainly spoke to me, but the rest just kind of mumbled, rambled, or spoke in tongues.
I appreciate what the author was going for, but some of the sections seem forced as he tried to make his honeycomb pattern consistent through the book.
Some of the content, too, is a little more "airy-fairy" than applicable, for me. I'll be referring to some of the early chapters -- the Creative Zone and the Time Zone especially -- when I need encouragement, but the later zones just didn't speak to me in the same way.

Honestly, I couldn't even finish it. Definitely not my cup of tea.
