Sports participation - from the recreational to the collegiate Division I level - is at an all-time high. While the caliber of their game may differ, athletes at every level have one thing in common: they want to excel. In The Champion's Mind, sports psychologist Jim Afremow, PhD, LPC, now offers the same advice he uses with Olympians, Heisman Trophy winners, and professional athletes, including tips and techniques based on high-performance psychology research, such as how to get in a "zone", thrive on a team, and stay humble; how to progress within a sport and sustain excellence long-term, and customizable pre-performance routines to hit full power when the gun goes off or the puck is dropped. The Champion's Mind distills actionable advice into clear and concise steps for athletes looking to find confidence, concentration, and mental preparedness - the mental edge that sets champions apart.

Reminder that being a champion is not always about being number one, but about crossing the finish line without regrets, knowing that you’ve tried your 100% best and put your best effort.

Great reminder to shift/tweak your beliefs

I am a powerlifter and I was looking for a book to help my mental game. I do quite well with the sport but I had a mental block with one of my lifts. I have listened to the book once and have implemented some of the suggested tactics. I listened to it every morning on the way to the gym. I am now listening to the book again to review and implement more tactics. I would recommend this book.

Great book for helping your mental game
