A positive and engaging book which enables the reader to be interactive and involved with the ideas and activities presented.
It is fantastic to get the views of the sports men and women, and the coaches that they have worked with, to get a clear view of what can (and usually does) lead to success.
These exercises and ideas draw from ancient and current thinking, and include effective coaching strategies from NLP and a number of other areas.
Most of all they help the reader to raise their awareness of their current strengths, recognises areas for development and give clear and simple tasks to do, which if followed will support the development of the focus required to achieve your goals.
Attitude comes up time and again with the professionals points of view and supports the research that it is not the talented that necessarily succeed, but those with the drive, attitude and confidence to pursue the dreams and goals, “you don't have to be the best to get where you want to go but you do have to be mentally strong and remind yourself why you have committed yourself to great goals and dreams” Pg 91.
Attitude is everything -” and My Reminder questions will help students and adults alike to gain clarity and focus on what they want and most importantly why they want it.
Emotional intelligence is key -” whatever field you choose to go into -” this book will enable those who read it and apply it to achieve in every area of their life -” not just sport.
I really enjoyed this text.
