Today’s book: Coaching the Mental Game by H.A. Dorfman—a legendary guide for athletes and high performers that shows how to train the mind like the body—on purpose, every day.
Here’s your 1-minute summary:
- Confidence is earned, not given. It comes from preparation, repetition, and self-control—not hype or ego.
- Thoughts drive performance. Discipline your internal dialogue. Speak to yourself like a coach, not a critic.
- Focus on what you control. You can’t control outcomes—but you can control effort, attitude, and preparation.
- Consistency beats intensity. High performers don’t rely on motivation—they build habits that show up under pressure.
- Mental toughness is a choice. It’s not something you’re born with—it’s something you commit to, moment by moment.
Master your mind, master your craft. What’s one way you’ll train the mental game today?
