By far the best sports-to-business psychology read I've experienced! As a former collegiate golfer, this book resurrected my competitive spirit. What a great reminder that success requires mental training. Your ability to focus your competitiveness toward success rather than failure is crucial not matter your profession. This is one of those books to put on your annual reading list. Well done, Dr. Bell.
