The Champion's Mind: How Great Athletes Think, Train, and Thrive

If you've ever wondered what makes a Champion in sport or in life, then this is the book that sets it out. This is not a theoretical pamphlet but an actionable guide which sets out each criteria you need to become the best you want to be - whatever that may be at. One of the positives of this book is you can dip into it again and again going over whether you have implemented the tried and tested techniques in the book. Another key part of the book is hands on commentary from top athletes who explain their mindset for winning and how it happened. Reading these books are useful if you are struggling to focus on achieving success in something. In my case, I want to be the best I can be at snooker, and this book has helped focus my mind on getting closer to that goal. With the help of this focus in this book, lots of practice, and coaching, I made my first break over 50! It helped me focus and give clarity, so give it a read, and see if it helps you. You can use this book whenever you are feeling negative about your confidence or need inspiration to keep motivated.

I loved this book, because it summarises most modern sports psychology theories and provides you with practical exercises to make use of them. It’s awesome if you want to work on your mindset, but can’t afford to work with a professional. It’s helped me a lot

This is definitely one of the best sports performance books I've read. I leant something from every page and unlike some similar books, it didn't fade away in the final few chapters, I would thoroughly recommended it to anyone looking to improve their sports performance through their mental game.

I have indeed been into sports psychogy since 1983 and this chef-d'oeuvre is having it laid out very clearly in words and images. Mr.Jim Afremow does not beat around the bush. Work with his methods, and you will shine! One of the best readings on the matter at all! Yes aye indeed! Go look forward to getting into his way of practising the best sports psychology that you'd find.at all. Mr Afremow rules! Yours truly SEY

The book's strength come from the holistic approach, deep research and wonderful variety of insights from Champion athletes and coaches across a number of different sports. Easy to read and well presented - it makes it easy from me to share relevant bits with my athletes.

Loved it can’t wait to read it, currently in a list of books to read

Enjoyed maybe the first two thirds of the book then got bored. Just going over the same stuff over and over I felt. Skim read the second half of the book, and was glad to have finished it.

Being an athlete who is trying to make it the highest level in my discipline I am always looking at ways I can improve my performances. The mental aspect is without question the most important element to performing at the peak of your given abilities and this book helped me to tap into my mental game and improve it considerably. 5 stars.

Ótimo livro!

Exclusive For a sportsman from any field.

A great book for the athlete or coach that wants that extra reiteration of what makes a champion tick or what to strive for to achieve excellence!

Ce livre est excellent pour les personnes qui ont envie de performer dans leurs sports ou dans la vie en général. Il donne de précieux conseils et il est riche en témoignages d'athlètes. Je recommande vivement

The book was in such good condition it was good as new! As soon as I started reading it, I was eager to jot down my own notes next to the author's valuable advice. Very grateful! :)
