Today’s book: With Winning in Mind by Lanny Bassham—Olympic gold medalist turned mental performance coach—shares how to build elite focus, confidence, and consistency by mastering your self-image and thoughts.
Here’s your 1-minute summary:
- Performance follows self-image. You can’t consistently outperform your beliefs about yourself. Train identity first.
- Mental rehearsal is key. Vivid, intentional visualization strengthens your confidence and primes your performance.
- Control your thoughts. You can’t stop every negative thought—but you can replace it with one that serves you.
- Build a system of wins. Focus on process goals, track successes, and build confidence through repetition.
- Train daily, not just when it matters. Champions train their minds like they train their bodies—on purpose, every day.
Winning starts between your ears. What thought or habit will you train today to move toward mastery?
