| Summary: | Even among the most elite performers, certain athletes stand out as a cut above the rest, able to outperform in clutch, game-deciding moments. These athletes prove that raw athletic ability doesn't necessarily translate to a superior on-field experience. It's the mental game that matters most. 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. 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. |
