What exactly is mental toughness and how can we develop this critically-important characteristic in young athletes? This book will answers all your questions!

Time and again, mental toughness has proven to be not only a critical component of athletic success, but also important to being successful in life itself. As it relates to sports, it is the ability to mentally endure and thrive in adverse situations or circumstances and to push through any obstacles or opponents and achieve an intended goal. It does not matter how strong, fast, or skilled an athlete is, if they lack mental toughness they are probably never going to reach an elite level of achievement. So if you want to achieve a state of peak performance, it’s important to condition the mind, just as you would any other muscle in the body.

In this book, you will learn the best methods to build the different components of mental toughness in young athletes including Confidence, Leadership, Determination, Resiliency, and Self-Control. By examining the careers of elite athletes who possessed superior mental toughness such as Michael Jordan, Muhammad Ali, and Tigers Woods, we can see how it impacted them in critical challenges and also how they developed this extraordinary ability. We also study the training methods of elite soldiers such as the Navy Seals and Spartans to see how they acquired legendary mental toughness.

If you want to develop a peak performer, or learn how to be one yourself, this is the book for you!
