Foreword by Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson From a top mental conditioning coach--"the world's best brain trainer" (Sports Illustrated)--who has transformed the lives and careers of elite athletes, business leaders, and military personnel, battle-tested strategies that will give you tools to manage and overcome negativity and achieve any goal. He knows how to win. More, he knows the many ways-subtle, brutal, often self-inflicted-we lose. As the most trusted mental coach in the world of sports, Trevor Moawad has worked with many of the most dominant athletes and the savviest coaches. From Nick Saban and Kirby Smart to Russell Wilson, they all look to Moawad for help finding or keeping or regaining their competitive edge. (As do countless business leaders and members of special forces.) Now, at last, Moawad shares his unique philosophy with the general public. He lays out lessons he's derived from his greatest career successes as well as personal setbacks, the game-changing wisdom he's earned as the go-to whisperer for elite performers on fields of play and among men and women headed to the battlefield. Moawad's motivational approach is elegant but refreshingly simple: He replaces hardwired negativity, the kind of defeatist mindset that's nearly everybody's default, with what he calls "neutral thinking." His own special innovation, it's a nonjudgmental, nonreactive way of coolly assessing problems and analyzing crises, a mode of attack that offers luminous clarity and supreme calm in the critical moments before taking decisive action. Not only can neutral thinking raise your performance level-it can transform your overall life. And it all starts, Moawad says, with letting go. Past failures, past losses-let them go. "The past isn't predictive. If you can absorb and embrace that belief, everything changes. You'll instantly feel more calm. And the athlete-or employee or parent or spouse-who's more calm is also more aware, and more times than not ... will win." Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |

Neutral thinking is best described by Dr. Christine Porath in a Psychology Today review of the book: "The idea is simple: Stay in the moment; react to each moment as it unfolds. Focus on influencing your next action. Don’t get sucked into analyzing past failures or hijacked by future fears or thoughts. Ground yourself in the present, focused on the next behavior. One play at a time."
Moawad describes specific personal and professional examples of neutral thinking in action, how it can help in extremely challenging situations, and its use outside of sports. The book discusses how to be self-aware, handling the negativity that surrounds us and the negative voices within, and the increase in ineffectiveness when we voice that negativity. The goal is not to just see the positive things in the world, but to control what we mentally consume, think about what we are doing and how we are doing it, and how to bring the best out in others through our own insights.
This is not a "rah rah" self-help book but a life is difficult so here's how you can keep doing the work, performing well when you feel poor, and how to bounce back from the inevitable failures that may or may not have been a result of your decisions. I'm sure I'll listen to this audiobook many more times on my walks. ( )
