This book was a nice and easy to read book with a lot of use information on how to calm and focus the mind in times of high stress.

Very interesting book. As a martial artist, coach and trainer, I have been practicing and applying many of the techniques discussed in this book for quite some time now. There is always more to learn though. I would definitely recommend this book to anybody interested in building a better understanding of the psychological effects that stress has on physical performance, and useful methods of training and controlling your mind. This book is filled with useful information, techniques and exercises. Well done Mr.Pierce!

This is a quite empowering book for optimal functioning in sports, performing arts, office and in real life. It is simple to understand and to follow its prompts. It is less on theory and concise on application.

The author covers many relevant topics in the books but my biggest issue with the book is the author's writing style and not the content of the book. The author has a writing style that reminds me of a college paper assignment. I found the writing style to be difficult to read and it did not hold my attention even though I am interested in the subject. Because of the writing style I would not recommend this book.

This is a simple and straight forward book that provides nice tips and tricks for mental training. If you are serious about mental training, and you practice what this book provides, it will make a difference in your mental state. I continue to use all the tips and tricks on a daily basis. It works!

Tips to get over performance anxiety and more! Easy and quick read, very good information. I really enjoyed this book.

Essential reading for people in combat sports, LE and the military to prepare for contact with an opposing fighter, criminal or enemy combatant. The mind drives the body and by following the principles in this book, you’ll stay calm, cool and collected when you face the enemy.

Excellent product
