Gordon Farquhar was present when the head coaches of England's cricket, football and rugby union teams- Andy Flower, Fabio Capello and Martin Johnson - joined forces to talk tactics. Read his blog on the BBC Sport.
"Keeping things in perspective is the only way to do it. Training and playing as if it's life and death, but in the real knowledge that it's not, and that there are actually more important things about," said Flower.
"You can be obsessed with your sport, and obsessed with your skill, obsessed with the art of what you do, but also realise that it's not life and death and that the love of your family, or whatever your values are, are actually more important."
