About this listen
Discover the strategies to achieve the confidence and mindset of champions and be the best in your game.
Do you sometimes find it hard to give your best performance on the field due to fear of failure or injury? Do you ever wonder how Olympic champions are able to give flawless performances under great pressure? There’s no denying the fact that professional athletes work under great stress and grapple with issues like anxiety and fatigue. In fact, recent statistics have revealed that over 90 percent of college athletes complained about stress and sleep problems, among other issues. But this doesn’t mean there’s no way to fix these issues.
Athletic success comes from a strong mindset more than strong muscle power. You don’t have to be born mentally tough–you can develop this vital trait with hard work and consistency. Loaded with simple, actionable strategies, this guidebook will help you build mental strength, become resilient, and achieve the top spot in your game.
Inside, you’ll discover:
- Five easy hacks to develop a winning mindset and reach your prime form.
- Seven habits you can adopt into your life, as done by athletes with incredible mental toughness.
- Six of the most common fears athletes have that take a toll on their mindset– and how you can steer clear of them.
- Nine powerful techniques to achieve resilience and mental toughness– supported by Olympic champions.
- Over seven costly mistakes athletes make that slow down their performance– and how you can move past them.
And much more!
With this guide by your side, you will be able to make a significant change to your mindset and get on to achieving what you’ve always dreamed of. You have already taken the first step towards conquering fears and elevating your game. Now it’s time for you to move even further and achieve success.
If you want to be at the top of your game by using the strategies followed by champions, then you need this audiobook.

If you’re interested in making money with stocks, you’re not alone. A recent Gallup poll showed that nearly 6 in 10 American adults have money in the stock market. But unless you’ve previously worked as an investment banker, you might have better odds of making money at the casino than with stocks. In fact, researchers from the University of California found that 90 percent of retail investors and day traders lose money. Which is why most people think winning in the stock market is simply a game of chance.

In listening, I learned you can become your worst enemy by setting unrealistic goals. The narration sounds like a rough and rugged individual. The author stresses how it is vital to start with baby steps. The key to a growth mindset is that they can change their body physically and understand that emotional intelligence is the key to accomplishing their goals. The narrator's voice reminds me of Jack Webb sticking to just the facts. The growth mindset mentality shows up throughout the book. Life presents challenges, and thoroughly reading this book and believing that the protocols work is the first challenge for preparing for the rigors of a professional mindset. The critical takeaway is learning how to use the right attitude in preparing for the challenges of becoming an elite professional athlete. I recommend this book for high school athletes.

The author emphasizes the importance of a growth mindset, which entails perspective, optimism, goal-setting, learning from mistakes, flexibility, and more. He also explains how frequently and intensely pro athletes use visualization–a habit nonathletes could stand to adopt, by the way. Throughout, these topics and others–including emotional intelligence and dealing with anxiety and fears–the author provides specific, practical advice on how to implement the book’s themes. Its tone and narration are authoritative and supportive.
